Serve up hot chocolate, coffee or a special warm beverage in these tall mugs. Here is a favorite recipe (from the Junior League of Tampa cookbook) that you might want to try out.
Hot Mulled Cider
1 (64-ounce) bottle apple cider or apple juice
1 (12-ounce) can frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed
1/2 cup lemon juice
1 tsp. whole cloves
1 tsp. allspice
4 cinnamon sticks
4 orange slices
Additional cinnamon sticks
Directions: Combine the apple cider, orange juice concentrate and lemon juice in a large saucepan. Wrap the cloves, allspice and four cinnamon sticks in cheesecloth and tie with kitchen twine. Add to the cider mixture. Bring the mixture to a boil and boil for 5 minutes. Reduce the heat and add the orange slices. Simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Serve warm garnished with a cinnamon stick. Yield: 8-10 servings.
Enjoy!
