Blueberry & Rosemary Mulled Cider

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Quick Meals Drinks
The tart, tannic flavor of blueberries balances the sweetness of the apple beautifully, and the color gives the drink a magical, deep purple hue. It's an antioxidant bomb that is not only delicious but also beautiful to look at. The earthy notes of rosemary highlight the character of the wild berries.

Ingredients

Equipment Needed

  • Saucepan
  • Potato masher or fork
  • Strainer

Instructions

1 ✓

Wash the blueberries. If frozen, leave as is.

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

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

Tip: Establish the flavor base before adding the fruit.
3 ✓

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

Tip: Crushing helps release all the flavor and color.
4 ✓

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

Tip: Don't cook the rosemary, just steep it at the end for a few minutes.
5 ✓

Rest briefly, 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% 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!
