Peanut Free Vegan Mulled Cider
Warm, aromatic, and deeply comforting, this mulled cider is the kind of drink that makes a cold evening feel like a celebration. Apple cider gets simmered low and slow with cinnamon sticks, cloves, allspice, star anise, and fresh orange rounds until the whole kitchen smells absolutely incredible. A touch of maple syrup adds gentle sweetness, and an optional splash of vanilla rounds everything out beautifully. Every single ingredient here is naturally free from peanuts and peanut derivatives, so there's no label-scanning or cross-contamination stress — just pure, cozy goodness in a mug. It's also completely plant-based, making it an easy crowd-pleaser for gatherings with mixed dietary needs. Serve it straight from the pot with a fresh cinnamon stick and an orange slice for a presentation that looks far more impressive than the effort involved.
