My friend Joanna and I were talking about her post for the Advent series over at A Knotted Life. She mentioned to me that she is in possession of the best apple cider recipe, a beaut that was handed down from her grandmother.
And she offered to share it with me and my readers. So yay for us!
Ingredients:
2 quart cider
1 quart cranberry juice
1 C orange juice
1 C sugar
1 tsp whole allspice
1 tsp whole cloves
3 cinnamon sticks, broken in half
Also needed: cheesecloth and stock pot
Directions:
In large stockpot combine cider, juices, and sugar.
Place allspice, cloves, and cinnamon sticks in cheesecloth. Wrap and tie into a bundle.
Place cheesecloth bundle in stockpot and bring the cider to a boil.
Simmer for approximately 45 minutes to let the spices do their magic.
Can be stored in fridge and enjoyed warm or cold.
