Ingredients

4 servings

4 cups fresh apple cider (unfiltered)
Ingredient note
Low residue diets limit fruit juices with pulp because pulp adds fiber and residue. Apple cider keeps a little fine pulp, but it is naturally very low in fiber and the amount per serving is modest, so it is likely low residue. If you prefer to always avoid apple cider, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
2 ceylon cinnamon sticks
1-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and thinly sliced
Ingredient note
Low residue diets limit whole spices and fibrous roots. The ginger here is only steeped for flavor and strained out, so it is likely Low Residue. If you prefer to always avoid fresh ginger, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
¼ tsp ground turmeric
3 whole cloves
1 tbsp honey, plus more to taste
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
Ingredient note
Fruit juice contains far less fiber than whole fruit, so the lemon juice used here leaves little residue. If you prefer to always avoid lemon juice, please tap it and change its rating to Red.

For serving

apple slices or ceylon cinnamon sticks, for serving (optional)

Instructions

1
Combine the apple cider, Ceylon cinnamon sticks, ginger slices, turmeric, and cloves in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a gentle simmer, stirring once or twice, until steam rises steadily and small bubbles appear around the edges, about 8–10 minutes.
2
Reduce the heat to low and simmer uncovered for 10 minutes, until the cider is fragrant and the spices have fully infused.
