APPLE CIDER MULLS



You can use these cider mulls for a festive and aromatic drink. When packaged in a pretty bag, they make a delightful gift.




  • 1 medium orange

  • 1/2 cup brown sugar

  • 2 teaspoons ground allspice

  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg

  • 2 sticks cinnamon

  • Whole cloves

  • Apple cider or juice





Cut the orange in half and scoop out the pulp. Place a crumpled ball of aluminum foil in each orange half to help maintain their shape. Place them on a baking sheet and dry in a 200-degree oven for 4 to 5 hours, leaving the door slightly open. Remove the foil and allow the orange halves to dry in the oven for 15 minutes more.



In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, allspice and nutmeg. Mix well. Pack half of the mixture into each orange section. Decorate the tops with a whole cinnamon stick and cloves, pushing them down into the brown sugar mixture. To serve: put one mull into 3 cups of cider and simmer over low heat for 20 minutes. Serve hot. To give as a gift, wrap each half in plastic wrap and attach directions.



Makes two mulls, or enough for about 6 (1-cup) servings.
