Happy Hour with AE! Apple Cider Punch
With Thanksgiving right around the corner, we are bringing you a super simple, super crowd pleasing little concoction that will be all the rage among your guests. Apple Cider Punch can be served cold in a punch bowl or warm (bonus!) by simply heating in a slow cooker or simmering on the stove. Feel free to take some creative liberties when making the warm version of this yummy little recipe - the spicier, the better! And don't forget your cinnamon stick garnish!
Apple Cider Punch for 20
(double, triple, quadruple recipe to your needs!)
Ingredients:
10 cups of apple cider
20 ounces of spiced rum
10 ounces cinnamon Schnapps
1 tsp. butter (optional) to warm version
Spices to taste to warm version
5 sliced apples (great use of those little beauties you picked recently at the apple farm!)
Directions (Cold):
Fill a punch bowl or other drink dispenser (we love this cutie from Pottery Barn)with ice (frozen cranberries also work and look beautiful)
Add the apple cider, rum, and Schnapps.
Slice the apples and add.

Directions (Warm):
In slow cooker or on lowest heat setting on stove, heat the cider for one hour and add spices to taste. Cinnamon, nutmeg, orange peel, and a dash of clove are our favorites
Before serving, add rum, Schnapps and apples.
Voila! Delicious! And your home will smell wonderful! No need even for a spicy candle!
Wish you a cozy and happy Thanksgiving!
Love, AE
