Make this Crockpot Apple Cider in the slow cooker for a warm drink that is perfect for a crowd. It is amazing for anyone in the fall, but you can spike it too!
Crockpot Apple Cider with Caramel
Crockpot apple cider couldn’t be easier to make. I added the cider, and the other delicious ingredients to my crockpot and turned it on. It really is so simple! In the fall, you can find apple cider at every grocery store, but if it’s off season or you can’t seem to find it, check the refrigerated aisle. This drink is sure to warm you up on a crisp fall day!
Ingredients Needed
- Apple Cider: Cider is important – don’t use apple juice for best results (it’s not as rich of an apple flavor).
- Cinnamon sticks: You have to have cinnamon with apple cider!
- Caramel ice cream topping – You can use my homemade caramel recipe or grab it from the store.
How to make Crockpot Apple Cider
- Place apple cider, cinnamon sticks, and caramel ice cream topping in a 5-7 quart crockpot. Stir to combine. Heat on high for 2-4 hours or until hot. Serve plain or make an adult cocktail.
- For each adult cocktail: add 1 ounce vodka to a mug and top with 1-2 cups of cider. Top with whipped cream, caramel sauce, and a cookie for garnish.

- I love using vanilla vodka, but you can spike this caramel apple cider cocktail with so many different kinds of alcohol: bourbon, whiskey, or caramel vodka are just a few to choose from.
- If you don’t want to use the crockpot, then pour some cider in a glass and add some caramel. Then heat it in the microwave.
