Hot Buttered Cider

Hot Buttered Cider, originally uploaded by *April*.

Perfect for snuggling up with someone you love or a good book beneath a down comforter on a cold autumn evening.

Ingredients per serving:
6 oz. good quality apple cider
1 cinnamon stick
1/3 teaspoon of butter (approximately, a little more or less won't hurt)
1 oz. Calvados
1 tsp. brown sugar
sprinkle sea salt
1/8 tsp. nutmeg
1/8 tsp. allspice
1/8 tsp. cloves
1/8 tsp. cinnamon
sprinkle dried lemon peel

For multiple servings, increase ingredients as appropriate.

In a kettle, mix all ingredients except the cinnamon stick and heat until butter has melted and mixture is very warm. Pour into warmed mugs (to warm, simply fill with hot water and pour it out once the mugs have warmed). Garnish with a cinnamon stick.
