Ingredients
- 2 quarts apple cider
- ¼ cup dark brown sugar

- 4 whole cloves
- 1 tablespoon whole allspice berries
- peel of 1 orange
Method
- Pour the apple cider into a large pot and add the dark brown sugar, whole cinnamon sticks, whole cloves, allspice berries and the peel of the orange.
- Bring the cider just barely to a boil over medium-high heat, watching for the first bubbles at the edges of the pot.
- Reduce the heat to low and simmer the mulled cider gently for 30 minutes so the spices perfume the whole pot.
- Strain out the cinnamon sticks, cloves, allspice berries and orange peel, then ladle the cider into mugs and serve it hot.
