This last recipe is perhaps the most demanding but the most beautiful if you love cider. The smell of this drink will fill your home with its spiced festive scent, making it a welcoming place to be, even more welcoming once you offer this hot spiced cider to your visitors.

This can be made in a coffee filter or a slow cooker to infuse the flavours more intensley. Add apple cider, a pinch of allspice, nutmeg and salt, a cinnamon stick, wedges of orange and 3 tablespoons of brown sugar together and heat until the flavours mix. When you are ready to serve this delicious drink sieve the solution and serve hot. A gorgeous alchoholic festive drink which is very popular at Christmas markets around the world.
