Mulled apple and ginger recipe

December 17, 2017 /

I really fancy serving up this mulled apple and ginger recipe over Christmas.

Serves 12.

• 2L cloudy apple juice
• 2 thumb-sized pieces of ginger, sliced into thin strips
• 2 ripe pears, sliced
• 2 cinnamon sticks
• 4 juniper berries
• 3 tbsp Demerara sugar
• Juice of 4 limes, zest of 2, plus extra limes to garnish

Put all the ingredients except one of the pears in a large saucepan. Simmer until the sugar dissolves. Ladle into glasses, garnish with the remaining sliced pear, lime slices and extra lime zest.

What festive drinks will you be serving up this Christmas? Will you try this mulled apple and ginger recipe? Or do you fancy making egg nog?
