As the cold winter months approach, hot apple cider sounds better and better. Of course you don't have to stick with the usual apple...you can try different kinds. I have saskatoon berry cider and cranberry/raspberry cider. Mmmm...it definitely helps keep warm these bones. :)

Maybe this is a silly question, but 5 cloves of what? DH and I had some delicious hot apple cider at Bob Evans last night, and now we're itching to make some homemade. :)
Ooohh... *hand to forehead* I just answered my own question (don't you just love those lightbulb moments?). Cloves, as in those spice buds. So *that's* what gives apple cider that spiced flavor... Hmm...
Sorry for wasting comment space. lol Thanks for the recipe!
LOL! No worries. I have my moments like that as well. Yes, those spice buds. :) Hope you enjoy some cider. :)
DH and I had some last night. It was delicious! Thanks again. :)
Wonderful! I'm so glad you like the cider. :)
