I was really excited about this recipe. It seems that the flavors of apple cider and pumpkin would go perfectly together. I actually recently tasted a delicious cold bubbly pumpkin cider from Cost Plus. Unfortunately the hot cider wasn't all I was hoping for. I had a few friends over and we all tasted it with great anticipation! Hmmmmmm, was the cumulative response. We couldn't figure out whether we liked it or not. The flavor is actually outstanding but there is somewhat of a grainy texture from the pumpkin. Maybe canned pumpkin would work better with this recipe.
This recipe can easily be doubled, tripled or more for a crowd.
1/4 cup pumpkin
2 cups apple cider
1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
1 cinnamon stick
In a large saucepan, mix together all ingredients. Simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 20 minutes or until the pumpkin has a liquid consistency. Serve garnished with a cinnamon stick.
