The BEST Simple Mulled (Hard) Cider Recipe - A Homemade English Christmas

Mulled drinks are so popular at Christmas time here in England. Mulled cider in particular is a staple festive drink in the West Country, because of its traditions of cider production. Remember that cider over here is a term for fermented apple juice, and it almost always alcoholic (or hard cider, as we would call it over in the States).
