Put 200 ml apple juice into a saucepan and add 20 g caster sugar, 1 tonka bean* (coarsely chopped), 13 vanilla pod (split lengthways) and 3 greens cardamoms beans.

*American cooks should be aware that tonka beans are currently banned in the USA by the FDA.

Strain the juice and tip any remaining spices into the fine sieve you are using.

The mulled apple juice is ready and can be put into sealed bottles and kept in the fridge for several days.

Remarks
If you'd like a more syrupy drink, add a little more sugar.

To bring out even more cardamom flavour, chop or crush the seeds as well. You can also give the tonka*, cardamom and vanilla a quick blast in a blender before adding this ground spice mixture to the apples.

*American cooks should be aware that tonka beans are currently banned in the USA by the FDA.
Keeping
A few days in the fridge, in a sealed bottle.
