On a cool fall day, enjoy a mug of warm apple cider. Cinnamon stick stirrers add spice and extra flavor to our favorite seasonal beverage.

Ingredients

  • 32 whole allspice berries

  • 24 cinnamon sticks

  • 24 cardamom pods

  • 12 whole cloves

  • 12 strips (2 inches wide) orange zest (from about 3 oranges)

  • 1 gallon apple cider

Directions

  1. Combine all ingredients in a pot. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, and cook until fragrant, about 5 minutes. Cider can be kept warm over very low heat. Strain before serving, reserving cinnamon sticks for garnish if desired.
