    MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

    Title: Hot Apple Cider
    Categories: Five, Beverages, Fruits
    Yield: 8 Servings

    1/2 ga Cloudy apple juice (cider)
    4 (1") cinnamon sticks
    1/2 ts Ground cinnamon
    1/4 ts Nutmeg
    6 Whole cloves

    In a saucepan, bring all the ingredients to a boil,
    reduce heat and simmer for about ten minutes.

    Strain the spices before serving. Enjoy

    ALTERNATE VERSIONS: You can add a slice orange to the
    pot for a citrus twist. OPTIONAL: add some rum before
    serving.

    NOTES: I first experienced this at Lincoln's New Salem
    Historical Site during the annual "Christmas at New
    Salem" put on by the Illinois Historic Preservation
    Agency. It was served by ladies from the Springfield
    Junior League in period dress - at the Rutledge Tavern

    It was like drinking a slice of apple pie. I was so
    hooked on it that I hung about and cadged the recipe.
    This is a reduction in quantity version. But otherwise
    true to the bone.

    ... Only the exceptionally rational can afford to be absurd.
