Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 6 cups apple cider
  • 1/4 cup real maple syrup
  • 2 cinnamon sticks
  • 6 whole cloves
  • 6 whole allspice berries
  • 1 orange peel cut into strips
  • 1 lemon peel cut into strips
  • cheesecloth

Method
 

  1. In a large sauce pan, pour the apple cider and put the heat on medium.
  2. Put your cinnamon sticks, cloves, allspice berries, orange peel and lemon peel in a square of cheesecloth and tie it into a bundle with a string. Place the bundle into the apple cider pan.*
  3. Let the mixture heat up until it's hot, but not boiling.
  4. Ladle the drink into mugs and add a fresh cinnamon stick to each mug.

Notes

*I don't like having to fish out the cheesecloth bundle, so I use a binder clip and clip it to the side of the pot. It makes bundle removal so easy!
