Hot Apple Cider
INGREDIENTS
- 10-12 apples (assorted- Honeycrisp, Gala, Granny smith, etc.)
- 2 medium naval oranges, peeled and sectioned
- 4, 3-inch cinnamon sticks
- 1 tablespoons whole clove
- about 1 gallon fresh water
- dark brown sugar to taste (optional)
- Apple slices, orange slices, cinnamon sticks (All optional garnishes)
INSTRUCTION
- Wash the apples, core and cut into wedges. Add the apple and orange slices to a stockpot. Place the cinnamon sticks and whole clove into a small piece of cheesecloth and place into the stockpot. Add enough water to cover the fruit plus about 1 inch and cook on high heat for 30 minutes, stirring often. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 2 hours. Add water as needed to keep fruit covered throughout simmering time.
- Remove the cheesecloth of spices from the stockpot and mash the fruit with the back of a wooden spoon or with a potato masher as much as possible. (Reserve the cooked fruit for another purpose such as applesauce or you can choose to discard.)
- Taste the cider for sweetness and add brown sugar to sweeten if desired.
