Hot Apple Cinnamon Cider Recipe

It’s finally starting to feel like Fall! I have been so excited for this Fall. This year has had so many changes for all of us that I think after having an unusual summer I am ready for a change! As a child I hated Fall, because it marked the end of the summer. After living in upstate NY for a few years I’ve come to appreciate all the fun things that come with Fall from harvest decorations, beautiful foliage, apple picking, Halloween movies, baking to feeling thankful for full fall sweaters as I eat what I bake 😉 Moreover, I’ve learned that it’s the time of the year to embrace being cozy .I’ve got pumpkins on my steps, acorn squash baking in the oven, a cozy blanket to wrap myself in as I read– I only need one more thing to complete this setting: Hot Apple Cinnamon Cider!

My recipe is [mostly] homemade, super easy, and delicious. The recipe below is for 1 serving.

Ingredients (1 serving)

  • 1 cup of apple cider (I used store bought-Zeigler’s Old Fashioned Apple Cider)
  • Homemade Cinnamon Syrup (this will make about 5 servings)
    1/4 cup white sugar
    1/4 cup brown sugar
    1/2 cup water
    1/2 TBS ground cinnamon
  • Homemade Whipped Cream (this will make about 2 cups)
    1 cup heavy cream
    2 TBS confectioner sugar
