This has to be the best spiced cider recipe I have ever tasted. Made it in the slow cooker instead of a coffee maker. I didn't have any whole spices, but the ground ones still worked well. Tied them all up in a coffee filter. Made this for Christmas, and it was gone before dinner. A keeper. Thank you.

This was my first attempt at spiced cider and it turned out fabulous. I followed the recipe as stated but I did not use the coffee pot. I put the brown sugar and cider in a pan and heated it to boiling to dissolve the sugar completely. I poured this into my crockpot. I tied the spices in a coffee filter as others have suggested and put that along with sliced oranges in the cider. I turned it to warm about 2 hours before my guests arrived and it was perfect. I kept the spices and fruit in the cider all evening and I thought the flavor got better and better. Thanks for a great recipe.

Delicious! Altered recipe a bit so I could cook it in the crock pot... Added orange juice because that's how I've always had it. Got many compliments!

This was delicious! I skipped the brown sugar and it was still sweet enough for me.

I made this three times in a crockpot, and the first time it was delicious. The second and third times it was undrinkable - be careful with the spices that you don't add too much because it will quickly overwhelm and ruin your cider (at least in a crockpot; I don't know about through a coffee maker). Making some more tonight and will follow the recipe exactly. Yummy!

Good, But I will keep looking for something with a bit more spice. I make it alot actually, because its easy. I make it differnt than the instructions imply and I am assuming that it would taste better if I had a coffee maker or a slow cooker, so to compromise, I make it stove top in my teapot with a giant tea bag and bring it to a boil. It is a quick, easy tasty drink.

I hosted a Christmas party last night and this was a hit. I made it per the directions in a slow cooker. I bought the least expensive unsweetened cider (in the juice isle). At first, I did not use the brown sugar per others suggestions after tasting, I deemed it needed it. I have a feeling had I purchased the cold cider for twice the price I would not have needed the sugar. Save yourself the money and buy the inexpensive/unsweetened and add the sugar. FINALLY and this is key have a bottle of BUTTERSCOTCH SNCHAPPS on hand. Guests can add a shot per cup...this was a HUGE HIT! At the end of the evening I poured the remainder back in the jug to use again tonight (Christmas Eve) and I will be certain to add the schnapps to my cup! YUMMY!

Really, really, really good. The reason I gave this 4 stars is b/c I significantly changed the way it is made. I heated it on the stove until it was hot but not boiling then simmered it for 30 minutes. I took the suggestions of others and used a tied off coffee filter for the spices (but not the brown sugar). I had clementines and no oranges so I used 2 of those. My husband and I both thought this was absolutely delicious. In fact, I am going to make some more now - perfect remedy on a day when the wind chill is -zero!

I used only 1 Tbsp brown sugar. Took a coffee filter and put the cloves and allspice in it, then tied with a twist. Used the crockpot, added the remaining ingredients to it and cooked on high for 1 hour; then turned to low 1 hour. Spiked it with Captain Morgan's Spiced Rum! EXCELLENT

Made my whole house smell WONDERFUL!! It tastes delicous also! So easy to make. I made this on the stove over medium heat for a couple hours, wrapped all the spices in a coffee filter and tied it with a twist tie, and just let the cinnamon stick and oranges float in the cider. Abosolutely wonder. I had made a precious apple cider recipe and it tasted like theraflu, so i was hesitant to make this, but glad i did! Definately a keeper!

My hubby made this mix in big batches one year except we used dried orange peel, and added star anise. We made up packages of the mix added a couple of mugs and put it in a basket for neighbours gifts. The smell in the house while it simmers is so homey and comforting. Thanks for sharing!

This is soooo good! Totally omitted the brown sugar. Would probably be over kill. We made this in the crockpot, bundled up the oranges and the spices in coffee filters and let them float in the cider that way. After a few hours we removed them and let the cider continue cooking for a few more hours. It was outstanding. I put it back into the cider container and stored it in the fridge afterwards. Now we heat it up as we go. Everyone was "ooo" and "aahh" over this one.

This is a great and easy recipe. Cut the brown sugar to 2 T. and I didn't have cinnamon sticks so I added a t. of ground cinnamon into the cider before pouring through the coffee maker (it wouldn't go through the filter on the first batch where I put it in the basket). No oranges either, so added 2 T. lemon juice to give it a zing and it was perfect - just like grandma's spiced tea:)

I made this cider for our Halloween Bonfire. It had great flavor and was easy to make, but it killed my coffee maker. Will try again using the stovetop method.

Made this after dinner on Thanksgiving and what a treat! Decided to just make this on the stove. We used a plastic type coffee filter we found and filled it with all of the spices. We placed the basket in the pot with the cider and orange wedges. The only change we made was to cut the brown sugar by half. The result was DELICIOUS! It was sweet but not too sweet with just the right amount of spices. We have never had spiced cider before but this will not be the last time!

I made this for my works Thanksgiving pot lunch. I placed all the ingredients directly into the slow cooker; then placed on low to heat overnight. When I brought it into work, I just turned it to warm for the day. I have received many rave reviews and many asking for copies of the recipe. I will defiantly be making this again. :) Very EASY!!!
