Mulled Apple Cider

This mulled apple cider smells as good as it tastes. I love having a batch simmering on the stove on a cold day. The addition of spices to the cider give off the perfect fall aroma. I frequently have some in the evening covered with a blanket and a favorite movie on. I am always up for the cozy vibes. If you want to turn this into a cocktail, add a splash of whiskey or brandy.
