Spiced Plum & Rosemary Cider

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Quick Meals Drinks
Plum and cinnamon are a classic pairing. This drink translates that flavor profile into a glass. The deep, jammy taste of the plum makes the cider thicker and richer, while the rosemary adds an exciting, earthy twist.

Ingredients

Equipment Needed

  • Saucepan
  • Knife
  • Strainer

Instructions

1 ✓

Wash the plums, pit them, and cut them into wedges.

Tip: The smaller you cut them, the easier they release their juice and color.
2 ✓

Heat the cider, honey, salt, cinnamon, and cloves together.

Tip: Heating the base spices starts the aroma release.
3 ✓

Add the plums and simmer for about 10 minutes until the plums soften and the liquid changes color.

Tip: This is where the color pigments from the plum skins dye the drink.
4 ✓

Add the lemon juice and the rosemary sprig. Leave on heat for another 1-2 minutes, then turn off.

Tip: Only add the rosemary at the end so it provides fragrance without bitterness.
5 ✓

Let rest for 5 minutes, then strain (or serve with the fruit).

Tip: The poached spiced plums are a delicious treat!

Recipe FAQ

What kind of plums should I use?
Any ripe, sweet plum is good (e.g., Italian prune plums). Frozen halved plums work perfectly too.

If you don't like it, omit it, or use a star anise instead.
