How to Garnish Spiced Hot Apple Cider

Video Transcript

Hello my name's Melissa and on behalf of Expert Village today I’m going to teach you a couple of different ways to make the perfect cup of hot apple cider. All right so in this clip I’ve taken it out of the microwave and once again, you can keep it right in the cup. I just prefer to have it, in the, in stoneware or Corning Ware. I just find that it tends to steep a little bit easier and it smells heavenly, it makes your kitchen smell really good and it makes your microwave oven smell really good as well, in case you’ve been, depending on what you’ve been cooking in it lately. But then to get it into the cup you can either just dump it over the sink or you can take a ladle as well and do that too. Now you just again want to be careful that you don’t get the cloves in it or if you do, they will sink to the bottom of the cup of course, just be sure not to eat them or ingest them, not a good thing. It’s good for flavor but you don’t want to be eating them. So you can drop that into your cup again too, so you can either use the ladle as I mentioned or what I tend to do is just take your cup and drop it all right in and so then another neat thing to do, you don’t want to use a new cinnamon stick because it's been heated up. Use the old one. Put that in like so. Ttime we’re spicing it up again, remember. So we’ve got our orange rind in here and we’re going to go back to our old fashioned, good old whipped cream. We’ll put that on top again as well, and so instead, and we like lots of whipped cream on there, just to make it look really pretty and it tastes really good of course. But in the earlier clip we were putting on ground nutmeg, we want to spice it up a little bit, so we’ve got the orange rind in the bottom, we’ve got extra cloves stuck into the orange rind, remember, and so instead of that ground nutmeg, we’re going to use the pumpkin pie spice instead. So when you’re opening these up, there’re different openings depending on whether you’re going to use a teaspoon or such, so you want the one with a little bit, with the little holes. And again, you can either put it on top like so, or again, I kind of like to put it in my hand, but this time we’ll do it this way, you just want to make sure you don’t want to put too much on, but again you’re garnishing it, you want to make it look decorative but it’s going to add in just a little bit spicier than the nutmeg, the nutmeg will be slightly sweeter than the pumpkin pie spice, just gives it that little bit more of a kick.
