Slow cooker spiced mulled apple recipe - yum!

This is so easy it can't really be called a recipe; more a discovery. It's the perfect festive drink for kids, for drivers, for those who've had enough already this week or for days when you feel like a treat but are still in charge of a toddler for the next two hours. Sigh!

Ingredients for 4:

1L / 4 cups apple juice - the cheap, clear stuff with no bits
1 sachet mulled wine spices - the kind that looks like a tea bag

Directions:

Put ALL the ingredients (it's confusingly complex) in the slow cooker. Cook on High for 2 hours.

Verdict:

I'm making this every other day now. It hasn't been this cold in Britain in my life time and we need drinks like this to cheer us up. Although great for a festive party, this will also work for the whole winter. I believe.. I intend to test this theory heavily.

PS You can make this on the hob too. Simmer ingredients in a pan for 15 minutes.
