Tips

The Spiced Cider is fantastic on it’s own, makes for a great drink with or without any alcohol!

The Spiced Cider will store well if you don’t want to drink a whole gallon at once. Just pour back into your gallon container and throw it into the fridge, this will last for a week or so. When you want to use it again just pull it out and heat it back up.
