Slow Cooker Mulled Cranberry Cider image

Provided by Kare for Kitchen Treaty

Time 1h35m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 quarts Cranberry-Apple Juice (I get the bottle from Trader Joe's OR 1 quart each cranberry juice and apple cider)
1 orange (cut into wedges)
1/2 lemon (cut into wedges)
5 cinnamon sticks
1 to 2 tablespoons honey (to taste)
1/2 - 1 cup red wine
Rum (optional)

Steps:

Add all ingredients (except rum, if using) to the Crock Pot, and cook on high for about an hour and a half, or low for about three hours. Switch the Crock Pot to the warm setting, and it's ready to serve when you're ready to drink! You can also warm this in the stovetop. Let simmer very gently, covered, for about 30 minutes.
Ladle the cider into mugs (leaving the fruit in the Crock Pot). I like to throw another cinnamon stick in there for good measure. Those nice long cinnamon sticks that double as a stirrer would work even better.
Oh right, the rum! Add a shot of rum to your glass before you ladle in the cider, if you are rum-inclined.
