is it okay to skip using the cheesecloth?
M says
Do you put whip cream on top?
Heidi says
After you transfer the cider to mugs, if you’d like you can add some whip cream and an extra drizzle of caramel. 🙂
Rebecca says
Is it ok to make this ahead, like the night before an event, then reheat?
Heidi says
Hi Rebecca ~ it really works best to make this cider the day of the party. You could lay everything out the night before, and have the cinnamon sticks tied up in the cheesecloth ready to go. It will come together really quickly. 🙂
