Ingredients
- 4 cups apple cider
- 0.25 cup caramel sauce
- 0.5 cup heavy cream
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0 optional (for topping) whipped cream
- 0 optional (for topping) caramel drizzle
Directions
Step 1
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the apple cider, caramel sauce, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg. Stir well to dissolve the caramel and distribute the spices evenly.
Step 2
Allow the mixture to heat gently, stirring occasionally, until it begins to steam but does not boil. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
Step 3
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream and vanilla extract. Continue to heat for another 2-3 minutes, while stirring, until the cream is fully combined and the cider is hot but not boiling.
Step 4
Remove the saucepan from the heat and carefully pour the hot apple cider into mugs.
Step 5
If desired, top each mug with a dollop of whipped cream and a drizzle of caramel sauce for an extra treat.
Step 6
Serve immediately and enjoy the cozy warmth!
