This is a comfort drink that gives your Home a Beautiful Aroma. Full of spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, ginger & cardamom. Like fruity Chai. I favor the Apple Schnapp or Buttershots if you opt for booze. You can always make it without the booze and let those that want it add it themselves. It would be fun to try the different kinds.

Fantastic. Spicy and not too sweet, a great drink for fall weather. Served today at an outdoor gathering and let each person add their choice of booze. Rum and Apple schnapps were equally as tasty. Thanks for a great hot drink. Made for beverage tag, " This Rounds on Me."

Delicious! Only about 1/2 of this recipe would fit in my crockpot, so I used about 1/2 the amount of the juices/cider/water specified, but used the while orange studded with 9 cloves, 2 cinnamon sticks, the whole nutmeg, 3 cardamom pods and skipped the ginger. We also opted for people adding rum individually to their cups of punch. As the punch decreased I added the rest of the cider/cranberrry juice and water and another cinnamon stick. Very good spiced cider which we enjoyed! Thanks for sharing!

This was a big hit when I brought it to a Christmas dinner - such a big hit, the hosts kept the leftovers. This would not fit in my crockpot, so I omitted the water and cut back on the apple cider by a few cups. We used Skyy Spiced Vodka for the booze, adding it to individual mugs so that the children and nondrinkers could also enjoy this. I also garnished each mug by floating in a clove-studded orange wedge. Thank you for a great recipe that just might become a tradition for us (and thank you for your email help, too )
