    Premium Swedish cider brand Rekorderlig hopes to give mulled wine a run for its money with a winter cider suitable for heating.

    The limited-edition Rekorderlig Winter Cider, available from Sainsbury's and Morrisons next month, is made from a blend of apples infused with vanilla and cinnamon and has a 4% abv (rsp: £1.99 per 500ml). It can be served cold or heated 'mulled wine-style'. "It will help change the perception of consumers who think of it purely as a summer drink," said Kieron Barton, MD of importer Chilli Marketing.

    I take it you tried it heated up?

    We normally buy a pack of mulled cider spice mix and add it to warm cider (apple juice for the wains) on Christmas morning after our dip in the Atlantic, it's one of the Christmasy things I look forward to most these days.

    Must keep a look out for this stuff.l

    This would give mulled wine a run for its money.

    Sounds yummy, would like a drink that had a good vanilla kick.

    At first I did enjoy their strawberry and lime cider but I can only drink about two pints as it is so sweet. I think this may turn out to be one of those "two bottles or you'll spoil it" drinks

    I used to drink the strawberry one, had 5 bottles one night and couldn't see the next day with the headache.

    Definitely a 'dessert' beer, rather than a night-out beer. Seems to be very high in sugar.

    That said, I'll be giving this one a go, no doubt.

    Definitely if I find it around, looks like a good one to have stashed away for xmas nights, a novelty version of mulled wine for the young paeple!

    Picked it up from Abbots Ale House in Cork two weeks ago and can positively say it is sex in a bottle. Think i paid €2.99 for it.
