Recipe: Spiced Cider Spritzer

Recipe: Spiced Cider Spritzer
November 1, 2021RecipesRecipes: Fall & WinterRecipes: Holiday

 

Many people find sipping on a flavorful beverage to be one of the pleasures of the holiday season. Whether a cocktail or mocktail, selecting ingredients to put a seasonal spin on things makes them that much more appealing. For this recipe, we’ve infused citrus, spices, and fresh ginger to bring apple cider from basic to celebratory.

Since it’s a spritzer, this recipe is best enjoyed cold. But with the aromatic elements of cinnamon and cloves, hot water can be swapped for club soda to make this drink a delicious, warm treat to suit the season.

 

Spiced Cider Spritzer

Serves 4-6

 

Ingredients

  • 1 medium orange, unpeeled
  • 20 whole cloves
  • 2 C apple cider
  • 1 cinnamon stick, plus more
  • 2 one-inch pieces fresh ginger
  • 2 C club soda
  • Orange slices

 

Directions

  1. Slice orange into quarters. Place 5 whole cloves in peel of each quarter, spacing evenly.
  2. In large saucepan on stove over high heat add cider, 1 cinnamon stick, ginger, and clove-studded orange quarters. Bring to boil. Reduce to low heat. Cover and simmer 30 minutes.
  3. Remove from heat. Transfer to glass jar or pitcher. Refrigerate overnight.
  4. Add 1/2 C spiced cider and 1/2 C club soda to short glass. Garnish with orange slice and cinnamon stick.
