Why Apple juice?

traditional Hot cider with fresh apples is a lengthy time-consuming process. On our trip to Leavenworth, after the sleigh ride, they gave us hot apple cider with apple juice. It was so comforting. Inspired by that here is my version of spiced apple cider with apple juice.

Cinnamon bark or cinnamon powder

If you use cinnamon bark it takes time to infuse the cider.  Spiced cider with cinnamon powder is comparatively quick. If you are using just cinnamon bark boil extra.

Can I use whole cloves instead of clove powder? 

Clove is optional but clove is a great addition to this healthy detox drink.

CAN I CONSUME apple cider before bed?

Consume it during the day. Avoid drinking it just before bed.

SHOULD I DILUTE cider?

Yes,  you can add hot water /apple juice according to your taste.

Is it a healthy drink?

it is so a comforting hot drink when you have a cold but it is high in sugar so avoid consuming daily,

Can I skip sugar?

Yes, sugar is optional it is already sweet on its own. To balance out the spice powder I add little brown sugar

REPLACEMENT FOR sugar

Honey is good for sore throat but if it is not available you can use panarkarkandu or regular sugar or maple syrup 

Should I simmer for 25 minutes?

You can simmer for additional time too. It turns flavorful as we boil on low flame so doesn't skip this step.
