In a medium saucepan, combine apple cider, fresh mint leaves, cinnamon stick, honey, and sugar.
Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat. Stir occasionally and let simmer for 10-15 minutes to infuse the flavors.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and peppermint extract.
Strain the mixture to remove the mint leaves and cinnamon stick.
Pour the peppermint cider into mugs and garnish with whipped cream, crushed candy canes, and fresh mint leaves.
