This very simple recipe will give you a warming drink with an amazing flavour of apples and spices. Just the thing to serve to your guests as a "trou normand" (traditionally a small glass of calvados served between courses), or to round off a meal with the dessert.

Mulled apple juice
Put 1 litre 200 ml apple juice into a saucepan and add 120 g caster sugar, 6 tonka beans* (coarsely chopped), 2 vanillas pod (split lengthways) and 20 greens cardamoms beans.

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

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.
