Mulled Cider

I made some Mulled cider the other day at the Russet. I'm all for anything hot and alcoholic so heres my recipe (i didn't measure anything so just glug it together).

Directions

6 bottles of good quality cider
1 apple studded with cloves (if you use a knife to score the apple first it's easier to stud the cloves)
1/2 cup ginger wine
Few glugs of dark rum
Brown Demerara sugar - to taste
Lemon zest peeled into strips
Zest and juice of an orange
3 cinnamon sticks
2 Star anise

Heat until boiling then turn down very low to preserve the alcohol and allow the flavours to infuse.
