Soy Free Vegan Mulled Cider
Warm, fragrant, and deeply spiced, this mulled cider is the kind of drink that makes a cold evening feel genuinely special. Apple cider simmers low and slow with cinnamon sticks, cloves, allspice, star anise, and whole black peppercorns until every sip is layered with cozy, complex flavor. A couple tablespoons of maple syrup add just the right touch of sweetness, and a splash of vanilla at the end rounds everything out beautifully. The best part? Every single ingredient here is naturally plant-based and completely free of soy — no label-checking required. This is the kind of recipe that fills your kitchen with an aroma that practically pulls people in from the other room. Ladle it into mugs with a fresh cinnamon stick and an orange slice, and it looks as good as it tastes.
