Homemade Cider Mulling Spice Mix

Homemade Cider Mulling Spice Mix is a fragrant blend of spices that make deliciously flavored mulled apple cider and mulled wine. The mulling spices are easy to assemble and also make a perfect hostess and teacher gifts, or a DIY gift for family.   

Nothing is better than a thoughtful DIY mulling spice mix added to apple cider or wine for a warm Holiday drink.

I love to leave something behind that the family can enjoy! Last year, I made a huge batch of Rugelach! So fun and festive! This year, I am making Homemade Cider Mulling Spice Mix.

What spices make mulling spice?

The usual spices are cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, cloves, and orange peel. I add star anise! Feel free to add in dried fruit of your choice and adjust spices to your liking!

What exactly is Mulled Cider?

Mulled cider is warmed cider with spices added. Pair homemade slow cooker apple cider with the mulling spices, amazing flavor!

Where did Mulled Wine originate?

Mulled wine was invented by the Romans in the 2nd Century to protect their bodies against the cold winters.

What wine is best to use when making Mulled Wine?

Red wine is best, Pinot Noir or Merlot are favorites!
