Festive warm spiced apple punch
A warm wintry drink to make you feel really festive. This is a great alternative to mulled wine when you are avoiding alcohol
Ingredients
- 500 Millilitres 100% Apple juice

- Slice half of the orange into slices and then cut the circles into quarters and add them to the pan with the apple juice

Notes
I do not use anything to sweeten this recipe as the apple juice is very sweet anyway but if you want it sweeter you can add honey or maple syrup to taste.
If you do not use all of this at once, beware that the longer it is heated the sweeter it becomes.
