We have perfected our Spiced Cider recipe over the years. We blend our preferred mulling spices and local honey with our craft cider, resulting in this truly decadent drink.
We hear our customers say ” the flavour reminds me of Christmas Pudding”. Another one we often hear is, “this tastes like my nonna’s homemade apple pie”.
We serve our Spiced Cider throughout the year. You can pour it straight over ice in the summer months. Or show it off as the star ingredient in a cocktail. Additionally, use it as a base for a sangria-style jug of deliciousness to share with family and friends.
During the cooler months, it really shines when gently warmed up and served hot in a mug. We like to warm ours on the stove and serve with a wedge of orange and a cinnamon quill for decoration.
However, don’t let us limit your imagination. Some customers enjoy their Spiced Cider with star anise and citrus. Why not enjoy it with a drizzle of Cointreau or a good pour of spiced rum!
Instructions:
When heating it, it’s best to warm gently without boiling.
A little bit of history…
Mulled cider, historically known as “wassail,” originated in medieval Europe. It began as a spiced ale or cider consumed during winter celebrations and agricultural rituals. Over time, it evolved into a popular seasonal drink across Europe and later in North America.
Today, it continues to be enjoyed during the holiday season. It connects drinkers to a tradition rooted in ancient agricultural practices and community festivities.

I purchased a bottle of spiced cider and decided to keep it for a cold, rainy day. The friendly staff had suggested to gently warm it with a few wedges of orange. It was so delicious and really was like drinking an apple pie. I will definitely be keeping a few of these in the cupboard to drink by the fire!

Took a bottle camping and heated it on the fire in the Billy. Show stopper for a cold night by the river!
