Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Rinse the apples thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt or residues.
- Core and cut the apples into quarters. There’s no need to peel the apples, as the skin will add flavor and nutrients.
- Place the apple quarters in a large pot.
- Add enough water to cover the apples completely, approximately 4-5 cups (1 to 1.2 liters).
- Bring the water to a boil over high heat.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the ground cinnamon and ground turmeric to the pot.
- Stir the spices into the water and apples.
- Cover the pot and let it simmer for about 25-30 minutes, or until the apples are soft and mushy.
- Use a potato masher or a sturdy spoon to mash the apples in the pot, helping to release the juices and blend the flavors.
- Place a fine-mesh strainer or cheesecloth over another large pot or a pitcher. Carefully pour the mashed apples and liquid through the strainer, pressing down on the solids to extract as much liquid as possible.
- Discard the apple solids left in the strainer.
- Pour the strained cider back into the pot.
- Warm the cider over low heat until it’s hot but not boiling, stirring occasionally to ensure the spices are evenly distributed.
- Ladle the warm apple-turmeric spiced cider into mugs.
- Optional: Garnish with a cinnamon stick or a thin slice of apple for an added touch.
- Sip and enjoy the comforting and invigorating flavors of this warm apple-turmeric spiced cider.
Tips:
- Choose a mix of sweet and tart apple varieties for a more balanced flavor.
- Using fresh, organic apples can enhance the taste and reduce the risk of pesticide residues.
- If available, use freshly ground cinnamon and turmeric for a more robust flavor.
- Consider adding a splash of lemon juice or a few slices of ginger for an extra zest.
- For a sweeter drink, add a natural sweetener like honey or maple syrup to taste.
