Stovetop Cider Cooking Class

Join us on September 28th from 12pm-2pm to learn how to make cozy, aromatic stove top apple cider - a fall favorite that fills the kitchen with warmth and spice. In this hands-on class, we’ll walk through how to prepare cider using a mix of apples, citrus, and whole spices like cinnamon, then simmer it slowly on the stove for a rich, drinkable infusion.

Along the way, we’ll explore how beverages like this were made in early American kitchens - before refrigeration, electric juicers, or presses - and why warm, fruit-based drinks were common in cooler months.


Please note: This is not a pressed or hard cider class.


We’ll be making a cider-style drink by simmering chopped fruit and spices in water - a simple, time-honored method that anyone can do at home. We’ll also provide instructions for making it in a crock pot or Instant Pot. Participants will sample warm cider in class, watch a live preparation of a stove top cider pot, straining and sweetening demonstration of another cider pot, take home their own pre-assembled cider kit and can enjoy a glass of fresh, warm, stove top cider.
