How to Make Hot Cranberry Apple Cider
- Combine 6 cups apple cider and 2 cups cranberry juice in a large pot or 30-cup coffee pot.
- Add 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 2 cinnamon sticks, and 10 whole cloves to a coffee filter or cheesecloth bag. If not using a bag, add directly to the pot.
- If using a coffee pot, place the spice bag in the coffee basket.
- Brew using your coffee maker according to manufacturer's instructions, or if using a pot, bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Once boiling (or brewing is complete), reduce heat to low and simmer gently for 15-20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
- Remove from heat. If using a spice bag, remove it before serving.
- Serve warm in mugs, garnished with a cinnamon stick and/or a thin apple slice.
