Winter is a bit late here. Until last week, it almost felt like summer and everyone around here was grumbling about how hot it was and it doesn’t feel like winter!
Right after New Year, the climate took a turn and it feels like the peak of winter! The mornings and evenings are so chill and even if it is sunny during the day, even a light breeze gives us a shiver!Now everyone is complaining on how cold it is!!
However cold it is here, we do have a couple of ways to stay warm! Staying indoors is one of them and the other would be sipping something nice and warm.
This hot apple cider makes you feel all warm and fuzzy and the kids will love it for sure.
I made this from Tarla Dalal’s site and initially I was hesitant to try it out wondering how it would taste. But after tasting it I have made this more than a couple of times in the past week.
This warm beverage is for the Kids Delight event that I am hosting this month with the theme – Winter Warmers.
Here is how to prepare Hot Apple Cider Recipe
I used:
Apple juice- 2 cups
Cinnamon-1/2″ piece
Clove- 1
Lemon juice- 1 teaspoon
Honey-1 teaspoon
- Take apple juice in a pan and add cinnamon and cloves.
- Bring it to a boil.
- Remove from heat and strain.
- Add honey and lemon juice to taste

You sure have guts to try such recipes , seriously I can never think on these lines . I must pass on the recipe to my friends who buy it from the market !
Fantastic drink there Pj.. Well done and quite an interesting winter warmer definitely..
Wow! I can be sure that this is a winner. My friend made this for a party at their place last month. It has been in my mind to get the recipe from her 🙂 I think she made it with many more spices in there.
Aww that is a pretty interesting recipe. Cold is unbearable nowadays and drinks like this would keep us so warm.
These are quite popular here but I never made it home. 😉 Apple with cinnamon it is hard to resist. Got to give it a try soon.
I love warm apple cider with spices. Great to fend off cold and sore throat too.
Great winter drink. My kids love apple cider too.
Oh that’s surely something very different to make at home..fantastic one PJ
Homemade apple cider sound so warm and comforting for the chilli winters here. Very simple and easy recipe.
Hot apple cider is so popular here in fall and any farm we go to have them by gallons. Love how you have made it at home.
This is a little different from the traditional apple cider we get here as the apples are fermented I think which makes it more smoky. However, this is a great instant version I am sure that would be a great alternative with a lot less work.
