Thursday: thirst day
feels
Reminiscing my mountain hike a few weeks ago. It was so cold! Heading back to my accomodation I passed by a bar and ordered myself a glass of mulled gin.
Mulled (alcoholic) drinks are served warm and infused with spices. Best for the cold weather!
Since returning from my trip, I’ve tried recreating this drink and omitting the alcohol most times. Minus the gin, this is now called hot mulled apple juice.
Try niyo din baka magustuhan niyo. Sa Pinas wala namang winter, kapag na lang maulan at malamig lamig ang simoy ng hangin.
Hot mulled apple juice
In a pot combine apple juice, spices (cinnamon, cloves), orange and/or lemon zest. Place pot over low heat, slowly heating to allow flavours to infuse merrily. Around 20 minutes should be good. I add some lemon juice for some tang, but if you prefer a sweeter drink you can add in some honey.
Enjoy! ☕️
