Blueberry & Rosemary Mulled Cider

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Quick Meals Drinks
The tart, tannic taste of blueberries counterbalances the sweetness of the apple brilliantly, and its colour gives the drink a truly magical, deep purple hue. It's a real antioxidant bomb that is not only delicious but beautiful to look at. The earthy notes of rosemary highlight the character of the forest fruit.

Instructions

1 ✓

Wash the blueberries. If frozen, leave as is.

Tip: The skins of frozen blueberries are already cracked, releasing their juice more easily.
2 ✓

Heat the cider with the honey, salt, and spices (cinnamon, cloves).

Tip: Establish the base flavours before the fruit goes in.
3 ✓

Add the blueberries and cook for 5-8 minutes. Meanwhile, crush the berries against the side of the saucepan with a fork.

Tip: Crushing helps to release all the flavour and colour.
4 ✓

Add the lemon juice and rosemary, then turn off the heat.

Tip: Do not boil the rosemary, just steep it at the end for a few minutes.
5 ✓

Let it rest for a bit, then strain (press the skins well).

Tip: Garnish with a few whole blueberries and rosemary.

Recipe FAQ

Can I use blueberry juice?
Better not to, or only 100% pure juice. Sugary juices ruin the balance. Fresh/frozen fruit adds texture too.
Why is it so dark?
The pigments in blueberry skins (anthocyanins) are very strong. This is natural!
