Hot Wassail

I made this for the Relief Society Christmas party I had at my house tonight and it turned out to be delicious!!! Enjoy!

INGREDIENTS:

1 large orange
Whole cloves
12 cups (3 quarts) apple cider
4 cups (1 quart) apricot nectar
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
6 cinnamon sticks

DIRECTIONS:

# Insert cloves into the orange about 1/2" apart. Bake the orange in a 350° oven. After about 30 minutes, remove the orange and puncture it in several places with a fork or an ice pick.

# Place the orange and the remaining ingredients in a large pot and cover it. Bring it to a boil and simmer over low heat for another 30 minutes.

# Transfer to a heat-proof punch bowl or crockpot. Float the orange and cinnamon sticks.

# Serve in heat-proof punch cups. Makes 32 servings.
