Vanilla and Bourbon Mulled Cider With Cardamom, Clove, and Coriander
Here's a favorite mulled cider that I can't resist when the days are short and the weather is brisk. It's got a warm, heady, slightly spicy profile thanks to a unique blend of cinnamon, cardamom, clove, and coriander (with a touch of vanilla bean for an added layer of sweetness).
Ingreadient
- 1 quart apple cider
- 2 (3-inch) cinnamon sticks
- 4 cardamom pods, bruised
- 4 cloves
- 1/4 teaspoon coriander seeds
- 1 vanilla bean, split
- 1/2 cup bourbon (optional)
Direction
- Add the cider and all of the spices to a small saucepan over medium heat.
- Bring to a simmer, reduce the heat, and steep for at least 30 minutes on low to let the flavors develop.
- Stir in the bourbon (if using) before serving.
