Easy Hot Spiced Cider


As a kid, it would not have been Christmas Eve without apple cider "brewing" in the crockpot with mulling spices.  The aroma is incredible and the taste... well, that taste is Christmas.   I hope this recipe helps you to create happy memories, too.

Easy Hot Spiced Cider

  • 1/2 gallon organic apple cider
  • 2-3 whole cinnamon sticks
  • 1-2 t whole cloves
  • 1-2 t whole allspice
  • 1/2 orange, cut into 1/4" slices
  1. Pour apple cider into crock pot.  Add spices.  Place orange slices on top.  Heat on medium for 3 hours or more.  (You could also make this on your stovetop.  Just place in a kettle and heat on low heat for 2-3 hours.)
  2. Refrigerate any leftover cider.
