Spiced Apple Orange Cider
2 whole oranges
8-10 medium red apples, quartered with seeds/stems discarded
2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
2 teaspoons ground allspice
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
4 whole cloves
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
8-10 cups water
Peel oranges and divide into pieces. Add both peel and slices to large pot along with apples.
In a quadruple layered piece of cheesecloth, place cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg and cloves. Gather ends and tie with kitchen string. Place in pot.
Add sugars and water to pot and bring mixture to a boil over high heat. Continue to boil for 1 hour, or until cider has boiled down.
Remove cider from heat and strain into a large bowl. Strain a second time with fine mesh strainer to remove any smaller remaining solids.
Allow to cool slightly before consuming.
SO HOW'D IT GO?
