What sounds better on a cold day than mulled apple cider? Only mulled apple cider on Thanksgiving day.
The food-focused holiday is all about turkey, stuffing and pies but we can’t forget about drink options.
This hot beverage is sure to please and can be made non-alcoholic or you can add your favorite spirit to add a little kick (we recommend bourbon for this one). And, it’s fairly simple to make, it only requires seven ingredients and around 30 minutes to make.
