This simple recipe only requires 3 ingredients and 5 minutes of your time. It can be served warm/mulled or cold in a long tulip glass or a ‘snifter’ glass, as shown in the picture. Soothing, warming and oh so moreish! This cocktail is a must try for the party season.

Recipe:

– 1 x 500 ml bottle of London Velvet (a blend of porter beer and cider – available nationwide from Morrisons). If London Velvet is not available use 200 ml of porter and 300 ml of medium dry cider

– Add a sprinkle of smoked paprika

– If serving mulled, gently warm the drink on the hob

– Serve in a tulip or snifter glass

– Garnish with a cinnamon stick as a stirrer

– Accompany with a couple of slices of crisp smoked apple to nibble on (sprinkle the apple with smoked paprika too if desired)
