INGREDIENTS

6 cups Sunrise Apple Cider
3 cinnamon sticks
6 whole cloves

DIRECTIONS

1. In a large saucepan combine cider, cinnamon sticks, cloves and orange peel to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer uncovered 30 minutes.

2. Strain the mixture through a fine strainer (or line a strainer with cheesecloth) into a heat-proof pitcher and serve. Or if you prefer, strain cider into a pan and ladle into mugs and serve.

Garnish with apple slices and cinnamon sticks in each mug.
