                    This smells so good when it's percolating. Once you've used your coffeepot to make it, however, it always has the smell of cloves and cinnamon[ sticks in it! We recommend you dedicate a cheap percolator to this recipe.] Ingredients: 
                    
                        
                                                1/4 cup packed brown sugar  |  
                                                3 cinnamon sticks, plus additional to use as stirrers  |  
                                                1 tablespoon whole cloves  |  
                                                6 cups cranberry juice  |  
                                                8 cups apple juice  |  
                                                light rum, brandy, or bourbon, optional  |  
                                                
                     
                    Directions: 
                    
                        
                            
                                1. Put the sugar, cinnamon sticks, and cloves in the basket of a coffee percolator. Put the juices in the bottom of the percolator. Let the mixture perk as if making coffee. Serve with cinnamon stick stirrers, if desired, and with a little rum, brandy, or bourbon as well.                              |
