1 (1 gallon) bottle apple cider
1 cup frozen orange juice concentrate (this ingredient is a must)

  • Then add the following ingredients to cider: orange juice concentrate,cinnamon,nutmeg,ginger and cloves.
  • Sometimes I add the cranberry juice cocktail but you may leave it out if you wish.
  • Let it all simmer for awhile (half an hour at least) The smell wafting through the house while the cider is simmering is simply heaven.
