Ingredients

  • 32 oz apple cider
  • 1 cup ice
  • 1/2 tsp lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp ginger powder
  • 1/8 tsp ground cloves
  • rosemary and apple slices (for garnish)

Directions

  1. 1

    Reserve 1-2oz of apple cider. Freeze the rest of the apple cider in ice cube trays for 4-5 hours until solid. If necessary, do this in batches and transfer frozen apple cider ice cubes to a freezer bag.

  2. 2

    Add the apple cider ice cubes, ice cubes, lemon juice, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves to a blender along with the reserved liquid apple cider. Blend on the frozen / ice setting on the blender until it forms a thick slushie consistency. Add ice cold water as needed to keep running the blender until all large cubes are pulverized.

  3. 3

    Spoon the slushie into cups. Garnish with a rosemary stem and thinly sliced apples. Serve immediately.
