sippin' cider

It's snowing in Birmingham!  So gentle, and pretty, and festive!

It's the perfect day to throw on your coziest sweatshirt and curl up with a cup of my favorite hot beverage of the season:

December Cider

1 can frozen cranberry juice concentrate
1 can frozen apple juice concentrate
1 (6 oz.) can frozen lemonade concentrate (which I can never find, so I end up using half of a 12 oz. can)
8 c. water
7 whole cloves
5 cinnamon sticks
dash of freshly grated nutmeg

Mix all ingredients in a large pot.  Bring to a boil and simmer.  Strain cloves and cinnamon before serving.

Raise a glass to December!
