The sweetness of a beverage is less pronounced at lower temperatures. If you're serving this cider over ice, use 2 cups of sugar; if serving it hot, use 1 1/2 cups sugar. Ingredients:
5 (3-inch) cinnamon sticks, halved |
1 tablespoon whole cloves |
1 1/2 to 2 cups sugar |
2 quarts water |
2 (16-ounce) bottles pomegranate juice |
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice |
1 cup orange juice |
Directions:
1. Place cinnamon sticks and cloves in center of an 8-inch square of cheesecloth; tie with string.
2. Bring spice bag, sugar, and next 3 ingredients to a boil in a Dutch oven, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat, and simmer, uncovered, 10 minutes.
3. Remove and discard spice bag; stir in 1 cup orange juice. Serve cider hot or cold.
4. *1 (32-ounce) bottle cranberry juice cocktail may be substituted.
5. Note: For testing purposes only, we used POM Wonderful Pomegranate Juice, which can be found in the refrigerated produce section of large supermarkets.
