A New Twist on Mulled Cider

Written by Chris on December 15th, 2009

For a delicious, new twist on mulled cider this holiday season, try using Zola  Açaí instead of apple juice.  This drink can be served hot or added to a smoothie for a truly delightful holiday brew!

Ingredients: mulled Zola

  • 2 cups Zola  Açaí Original
  • 2 tbsp ground cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ½  lemon, zested
  • 2 tsp clove powder
  • 2 tbsp fresh nutmeg
  • Ice (optional)
  • Banana (optional)

Combine all ingredients in a saucepan.  Bring to a boil over medium low heat.  Reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer for 20 minutes.

If you want to drink it hot, then you’re all done! Top it with a cinnamon stick if you desire and enjoy…

If you want to add it to a smoothie, here’s what you can do next.

Let it cool for about 20 minutes in the refrigerator.  Once cool, put mixture in a blender along with 1 cup of ice and a banana and blend until smooth.  Pour in your favorite smoothie glass and top it with a cinnamon stick – and enjoy!

    That drink sounds delicious….I started adding EBOOST to my ZOla and it gives me an extra BOOST of Healthy Energy and immunity boosting combined with the power nutrients and wellness you get from Zola….a great combination for those that want to be healthy & energized and on top of their game.

    mmm, I love hot cider, this sounds great! I wonder if this hot mixture could be used for other things I would use cider for, like cranberry sauce or braising meats…hmmm…
