1/2 gallon apple cider (you can use juice, it's just sweeter)
2-3 cups cranberry juice
2-3 cups orange juice
4 cinnamon sticks
20ish whole cloves
several dashes of the following spices:
allspice (about 1 tsp)
nutmeg (about 1 tsp)
about 1/2 the amount of dashes of ginger (about 1/2 tsp)
a couple dallops of honey
2 small oranges sliced thin
a big handful of whole cranberries
(I keep a bag of fresh cranberries in the freezer so when I want to use them, I have them)
stick the cloves in the orange slices, dump everything in a crock pot, heat for 6-8 hours on low, serve in mugs to warm bellies.......Grant LOVES it when I make this!!
Mkae sure you stir it up real good once it is warmed to get the honey mixed in good.
