Directions

Stud the orange all over with the cloves. Set aside. Place the star anise, ginger root, and allspice berries on a square of cheesecloth and tie to make a bag. This will secure the spices.
In large pot, at least 5 quarts, place the cinnamon sticks, orange studded with cloves, and the spice bag. Pour the cider over them. Bring to a low simmer over a medium high heat. Cover, and lower the heat to low. Cook at a low simmer for 11/2 – 2 hours. (see Ann’s Tips)
When ready to serve, carefully remove the spice bag, cinnamon sticks and the orange – the orange will be very soft. You may have to strain the cider if too many of the spices have escaped. Return to the stove and keep warm on a very low flame. Serve hot.

Chef Tips

If a large slow cooker is available, follow recipe as above but cook for 4 hours.

Put the spices into a metal tea strainer if a big one is handy.
