Ingredients

• 1 cup Sweet Home Peach Cider
• ½ cup Sweet Home Spiced Apple Cider (for warm spice notes)
• 1–2 teaspoons Sweet Home Peach Butter — to taste
• ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract (optional but warming)
• A pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg
• Gingerbread or molasses cookie or cinnamon stick, for garnish

Warm the ciders:
In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the Peach Cider and Spiced Apple Cider. Heat until steaming but not boiling.

Enjoy:
Sip warm and slow — this drink is meant to comfort and cozy up the season.

Optional Variations

Extra Cozy: Add a drizzle of honey or a splash of cream for extra sweetness and richness.

Muscadine Twist: Substitute a bit of Sweet Home Red or White Muscadine Juice for up to half the cider for a fruitier, deeper flavor. 

Tea Base: For a caffeine-free option, add a splash of warm herbal tea (like chamomile or peach-ginger) to mellow the sweetness.
