Lupin Free Spiced Mulled Apple Cider
Warm, fragrant, and deeply comforting, this spiced apple cider is the kind of drink that makes a cold evening feel like a celebration. Fresh apple cider gets a long, slow simmer with Ceylon cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, and cloves until every sip is layered with cozy, aromatic flavor. A touch of pure maple syrup rounds it all out with just the right amount of natural sweetness. Every single ingredient here is naturally free from lupin, so there's no need to scrutinize labels or worry about hidden legume-based additives sneaking into your cup. The whole spices are strained out before serving, leaving behind a beautifully clear, richly infused drink that looks as good as it tastes. Garnished with a fresh apple slice and a cinnamon stick, it's the kind of thing you'd happily serve to guests or curl up with on your own.
