Spiced Cider

My family loves everything about fall--the cool weather, the hearty food, the leaves changing--I could go on!  I hosted a Welcome Home party for my brother the first day he was back.  We had yummy roasted apple spice cupcakes, pumpkin bars, egg rolls, buffalo chicken dip, and spiced cider!

Such an easy drink recipe--throw everything in a crock pot or sauce pan and let it simmer for a bit then serve!  Perfect party drink!  Plus, you can make this an 'adult' beverage by adding spiced rum.  Delicious!!!
