Cinnamon-Pear Cider
Cinnamon-Pear Cider is a true autumn and winter favorite, with its warming effect and spicy flavors making it the perfect complement to cold days. The natural sweetness of apple juice and fresh pears harmoniously meets the warm aroma of cinnamon and cloves. This drink is an excellent alternative to traditional mulled wine and can even be prepared alcohol-free with sparkling water or cider. For an extra special touch, try it with a little ginger or a pinch of nutmeg!
