Cozy Mulled Grape Cider

A crisp fall night, with the smell of Mulled Grape Cider simmering away on the stovetop - doesn't that sound wonderful! Slow-cooked with cinnamon, cloves, and anise, releasing a wonderful aroma throughout the house.

Grape Cider is such an easy drink to make during the colder times of the year. Keep your hand and soul nice and cozy. You can even bottle and take it with you to friends and family! Any opportunity I have to make this I will!
