How To Make spiced apple-cranberry cider (slow cooker)

  • Step 1
    Using a slow cooker that holds up to 5 quarts, mix all ingredients. Cover and cook on low 4-6 hours. Remove allspice and cinnamon prior to serving.
  • Step 2
    NOTE: Put spices in cheesecloth, several layers of gauze, or a paper coffee filter. Tie with a piece of kitchen string. This makes the spices easy to remove from the hot cider.
  • Step 3
    Serving suggestion: For a lovely flash of color in this ruby red drink, add fresh orange slices to slow cooker immediately prior to serving.
