| Comments: Serve this to your family and friends for a festive drink during the holiday season. It's a lovely and soothing warm drink for a chilly day or evening. |
Ingredients:  1 large lemon, cut in half 1 medium orange, cut in half 16 whole cloves 4 cups clear apple juice 1/2 to 3/4 cup honey 4 (2-inch) cinnamon sticks 1/4 tsp. ground ginger |
| Instructions: Cut two slices (1/4-inch thick) from each lemon and orange half. Insert whole cloves into slices; set aside. Squeeze juice from remainder of fruit halves into a medium non-reactive saucepan. Stir in apple juice and honey; mix well. Add cinnamon sticks, ginger and reserved fruit slices. Bring just to a boil over medium-high heat. Strain cider if desired and place one or two cinnamon sticks in each glass or cup. Serve immediately in a heatproof serving bowl. Makes 6 servings. Note: If desired, a little brandy can be added to the cider to give it that extra "zip", or leave it alcohol-free so the kids can enjoy it also. |
