Cranberry Orange Cider



What you need:

1 cut fresh cranberries
6 cups apple cider or unfiltered apple juice
2 cups cranberry juice
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
4 whole cloves
4 whole allspice
2 cinnamon sticks
4 orange slices, cut 1/4 inch thick
3 lemon slices, cut 1/4 inch thick
3 lime slices, cut 1/4 inch thick

What you do:

Place cranberries in a food processor and pulse just until coarsely chopped.

Place chopped cranberries, cider, cranberry juice, brown sugar, cloves, allspice, cinnamon sticks, orange slices, lemon slices and lime slices in a preheated crock pot. Cook over high heat 10 to 20 minutes. Reduce heat to low and simmer another 10 minutes. Remove from crock pot; let stand 15 minutes.

Strain cider through a fine wire mesh strainer; discard solids. Keep cider warm by returning to crock pot and setting to the keep warm setting. Serve with additional orange, lemon and lime slices and a cinnamon stick.
