Wednesday's Chow - Hot Cranberry Cider

by Callie Hutton

This week's geust offers up a yummy hot drink in time for the cool autumn nights.  Callie posted a wonderful blog on Monday about naming characters. If you haven't stopped by A Rose by Any Other Name... and read it yet, do so now! 


Hot Cranberry Cider

Apple Cider is very popular this time of the year, but I found this recipe for Hot Cranberry Cider, which is absolutely wonderful to sip while gazing into the fireplace. Be sure to have your romance novel handy, when you do!

This recipe is from the Food Network website, courtesy of Paula Deen & Friends, Simon & Schuster, 2005

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 3 cinnamon sticks, plus additional sticks to use at stirrers
  • 1 tablespoon whole cloves
  • 8 cups cranberry juice
  • 6 cups apple juice

Directions

Put the sugar, cinnamon sticks and cloves in the basket of a large coffee percolator. Put the juices in the bottom of the percolator. Let the mixture perk as if making coffee. Serve with cinnamon stick stirrers, if desired.
