List of Ingredients
5 allspice berries
2 cinnamon sticks
4 whole cloves
1/4 t. salt
1 orange peel (whole peel)
1 lemon peel (whole peel)
2 quarts apple cider
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
Ground nutmeg to taste

Recipe
Place the spices, salt and fruit peels in the center of a 12" square of
cheesecloth. Gather up the corners and tie with butcher's twine to
cream a small
packet. In a large pot, over medium heat, heat the cider until steam
begins to
rise from the surface. Add the brown sugar, and stir until melted. Add
the
spice packet to the pot and steep for 10 minutes, or until the cider is
infused
with spice. Serve in mugs with a sprinkling of nutmeg and a cinnamon
stick
stirrer. If you prefer spiked cider, add 3/4 oz. of spiced rum to each
serving or
use 1 cup of rum for the full recipe.
