Ingredients:

• 2 L apple cider
• ¾ cup brown sugar
• 2 Tbsp butter
• 1 stick cinnamon
• 6 whole cloves

Directions:

1. Bring cider to a boil in a large pot, add remaining ingredients, simmer until sugar dissolves.
2. If desired, cinnamon and cloves can be tied up in cheesecloth before adding to the liquid - this will make removal easier.

Hot Buttered Rum Option: Add 1 oz. of rum to a 4-oz. serving of Hot Mulled Cider.
