Big hit at an October tailgate! I actually goofed and used 4 quarts of apple cider without doubling the rest of the recipe, still delicious, obviously a less alcoholic version but I had steeped the cider with the studded apple and orange so I think that helped the flavor.

I'd never made apple cider before but tried this recipe a bit before Thanksgiving on a cold night for a bit of a comfort sip. It was absolutely delicious! All of the ingredients noticeably contributed to the resulting overall flavor and the simplicity of the recipe earned its way into my recipe collection. Definitely a keeper!

Made this for a party last night and it was wonderful. Used fresh apple cider from a local grower which is not overly sweet. Used whole allspice and dark brown sugar. Otherwise, followed recipe. Simmered 30 min then added rum. Will definitely make again!
