Mulled Apple & Mead Cup

Lovely wintery flavours and enticing aromas, honeyed with the mead mulling with apple juice and spices. Serve hot to warm up after a chill winter's walk or post shopping expedition.

Ingredients

  • 400ml of Atlantic Dry Mead
  • 125ml apple juice
  • 1 cinnamon stick
  • slices of fresh ginger root
  • 3 allspice berries or peppercorns (optional)
  • 1-2 tsp of honey to taste

Garnish: Slice of apple with a clove stud

Serves 4

Method

Warm gently in a pan and allow to steep for 10 minutes.

Pour into a heat proof glass

Garnish with a slice of apple with a clove stud

Tip: You can substitute the spices with a spiced tea such as chai. Just don’t leave it steep too long!

You can substitute the Atlantic Dry Mead with Atlantic Dry Mead – White Port Barrel Aged or try Sauternes.
