Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup fresh apple cider
  • 1 tbsp orange juice
  • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
  • pinch ground nutmeg
  • pinch ground cloves
  • pinch ground allspice

Instructions
 

  • In a small saucepan, combine the fresh apple cider, orange juice, ground cinnamon, and a pinch each of ground nutmeg, ground cloves, and ground allspice. Stir everything together until the spices are well mixed with the liquids.
  • Place the saucepan over medium-high heat and bring the mixture to a boil. Stir occasionally to ensure the spices don’t stick to the bottom, and the flavors start melding.
  • Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and maintain a strong simmer. Let the mixture simmer for 20 to 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the liquid reduces by about half and turns a dark amber color. I find stirring every few minutes helps to prevent sticking or burning on the bottom of the pan.
  • Use the reduction sauce immediately, as it will harden if left to sit. Serve warm as a topping or use in your desired recipe.
