Cold, Non-Alcoholic Cider Although you might be craving a hot mug of cider, the best way to start the process is by making cold apple cider. This non-alcoholic beverage can be enjoyed cold or altered to make a mug of hot mulled cider whenever you so desire. The first step of the process is to turn your apples into juice. You can either do this by using an apple cider press which first mashes apples and then squeezes all of the raw juice out of them. If you don’t own a press, you can also extract the juice in your own kitchen. The first step to doing this is to chop your apples and then puree them in a food processor or blender. Then, strain the pulp. No matter which process you use, you will end up with cold, fresh apple cider. Hot Mulled Apple Cider Now that you have your fresh cider kept fresh by either refrigerating or freezing it, you can make that hot apple cider you’ve been craving! This beverage is created by not only heating the juice, but by adding a variety of spices and real maple syrup. Some of the most common spices used in the preparation of mulled apple cider are cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, allspice, and orange/lemon peels.
