Easy Hot Apple Cider

Hot Apple Cider

 

12 or so small-to-medium-sized organic apples, assorted
1 organic orange
1/2 cup organic brown sugar
4 cinnamon sticks
1 whole nutmeg
1 Tbsp. whole cloves
1 tsp. whole allspice (optional)
water to cover

1) Wash apples and the orange, and then roughly cut into quarters. (Don’t worry about removing peels, seeds, or stems.) Place in a large stock pot.
2) Add sugar, cinnamon sticks, nutmeg, cloves and allspice. Then cover with water, filling the pot until it is nearly full (about 2 inches of space at the top of my pot). Bring to a boil and boil uncovered for at least an hour, stirring occasionally. Then cover and reduce to a simmer, and allow juice to simmer for at least another two hours.
3) Periodically during the three hours, use a potato masher (or tongs, or you could just use the side of a spoon) to begin mashing the apple and orange slices once they are soft. Add more sugar or spices to your taste.
4) When cider is ready allow to cool then strain apple and orange pieces and whole spices into a clean pitcher or pot (you can strain everything through a cheesecloth and twist and squeeze to get every last drop).
5) Serve hot, and garnish with a cinnamon stick. Store in the refrigerator and reheat as desired.

Benefits of Dark Chocolate… Raw dark chocolate, also known as raw organic cacao is essentially cold-pressed cacao beans. As unprocessed chocolate, cacao is available most commonly as cocoa powder or organic raw chocolate nibs. The difference between healthy dark chocolate and regular dark chocolate is that raw chocolate has not been heated. Cacao has the highest antioxidant content on a per-serving basis. Since raw cacao is a rich source of antioxidant flavonoids it promotes cardiovascular health and protect against toxins. The antioxidant flavonoids in raw cacao can help improve circulation, regulate heartbeat and blood pressure. Additionally, cacao helps the body repair itself and resist free-radical toxins.

So for Valentine’s Day this year, make that someone special something chocolate and healthy
