Crock Pot Cranberry Cider





Ingredients
8 cups (64 ounces) Cranberry Juice
4 cups (32 ounces) Apple Cider
1 cup fresh cranberries
4 cinnamon sticks (plus more for garnish)
1 tbsp whole cloves (tied in a cheesecloth to contain them)- *opt
1 ounce light or dark rum per served glass - *opt

Directions
1. Combine cranberry juice, apple cider, cranberries, cinnamon sticks & cloves in crock pot.
2. Cook on high if you plan on using within 2-3 hours. Cook on low for longer.
3. Allow to simmer & warm until ready to serve- stirring occasionally.
4. Ladle into mugs, garnish with additional cinnamon stick
5. Add in one ounce of rum per mug if desired.

I opted out of using the cloves and rum and the drink still turned out wonderfully. It was perfect for my little Christmas party. Those who wanted a little rum were able to add it to their own drinks, while those who didn't want alcohol had a nice tasty drink. It was gone by the end of the night!
