Tricia's Hot Apple Cider (Crock Pot)

Hot Cider Punch

1 (64 oz) bottle apple cider
2 c orange juice
¾ c fresh lemon juice
¼ c honey
10 whole allspice
5 whole cloves
1 (2 ½ in) cinnamon stick
1 lemon sliced

*Combine first seven ingredients in 4-5 qt slow cooker.
*Cover and cook on HIGH 4 hours or on LOW 8 hours. Pour liquid through a wire mesh strainer into a large container discarding the spices. Add lemon slices just before serving. Serve warm. Makes 11 cups.

TIP-Use cheesecloth for the spices for easy removal.

Notes: I’ve never made this recipe before, and I have a larger slow cooker. So I followed the recipe and increased it by half. Depending on what your taste is, you could add more spices, cider, honey, etc. It came from my Southern Living slow cooker book.
