About the recipe
It’s not hard to make this from scratch, just pick up a few bottles of decent scrumpy and give this a try.
Ingredients
2 litres good-quality traditional cider
6 cloves
3-4 star anise
¼ nutmeg, finely grated into the pan
1 cinnamon stick
1 vanilla pod, halved
1 orange, juice of
2 clementines, juice of
1 pomegranate, juice and seeds of
4-5 tablespoons caster sugar
Method
- Pour the cider into a large pan on a low heat and let it warm through for a few minutes. Add all the spices and juices and turn the heat up. Once boiling, turn down to a simmer and leave to tick away for 5–8 minutes.
- As everything infuses you’ll get delicious layers of flavour. Taste it and add sugar as you like. You don’t want it sweet; you just want the sugar to join the spices in a harmonious taste. When you’re happy with the flavours, ladle into glasses or mugs and serve warm.
