It's funny how things which were always so exotic to me when I was growing up in the desert turn out to be so doggoned simple. I mulled it in the microwave in a covered bowl.

1 quart cider, room temperature
6 cinnamon sticks (broke them in half)
a few allspice berries
a few anise seeds
then a teabag with nutmeg, cloves, ginger--less than half a teaspoon of any of them, less than a quarter teaspoon ginger

I heated it 7 minutes on high and 10 more minutes on medium. It's about as hot as coffee... and not so exotic at all. But ohhh so good on a freezing cold day! My insides are starting to thaw.

Great idea! Micro Mulled cider! You would do well to publish articles, you have so many great ideas.

I love good cider.
