Notes

  • Add Citrus for Brightness: Enhance the apple flavor with a touch of citrus. Squeeze in some fresh orange juice or add a couple of orange slices for a citrusy twist.
  • Spice it Up: Infuse warm spices like cinnamon sticks, whole cloves, and a dash of nutmeg for that classic apple cider taste. Adjust the spice level based on your preference.
