Cinnamon Apple Cider
Brrr! With the cold weather here with a vengeance, it is time to start finding those warm winter drinks.
This is one of our family favorites, good for a cold day, or for when you have a cold. We especially like using honey and real lemons to make it super healthy.

| 8 cups | apple cider |
| 2 cups | orange juice |

Add the remaining ingredients. Return to a boil.
