Hot spiced apple cider
Half an orange  
Gallon of Jersey Fresh apple cider
~ 1/3 c. allspice
4 to 5 cinnamon sticks
Slice the orange and wrap it with the allspice and cinnamon sticks in some cheesecloth. Put spices in a pot on the stove or in a crock pot. Heat slowly (do not boil) so that the spices seep into the cider.
Serve hot.
You can adjust the spices to your taste. Orange slices make a nice garnish.
Stony Hill has Jersey Fresh apple cider
