How To Make nancy and len jones' hot spiced cider

Step 1

Place all ingredients in a large pot (stock pot works very well) and bring to a boil, uncovered. Boil 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 2

Turn off heat, cover, and let stand to cool a bit. Remove cinnamon sticks an cloves, and strain liquid.
Step 3

Drink it as hot as possible, and enjoy!
Step 4

Cool spiced cider completely before returning whatever remains to original apple cider container. Keeps well in refrigerator (and tastes just as yummy cold).
