- 4-5 teaspoons packed brown sugar, depending on preference
- 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
- 10 whole cloves, about 1/4 teaspoon
- 1 cinnamon stick, broken in half
- 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 2 quarts (8 cups) apple cider
Directions
- In a tea ball*, mix together the brown sugar and spices. Close the tea ball and place in a large saucepan. Pour the apple cider into the saucepan and set the heat to medium-high. Once the cider begins to boil, lower the heat to a simmer and keep warm until ready to serve.
*If you do not have a tea ball, use one of these variations:
- Place sugar and spices in a coffee filter. Tie the coffee filter closed with cooking twine and place in the saucepan along with the cider.
- Place the sugar and spices directly in the saucepan with the apple cider. After it has boiled, strain the cider through a fine mesh strainer and discard the spices.
