cider

i make really fucking good cider.

here's the recipe:

1 96 fl. oz bottle Mountain Sun Organic Apple Cider
2 or 3 cups Minute Maid high pulp orange juice
1/2 cup mulling spices
including arbitrary amounts of:
- juniper berries
- cloves
- full anise stars
- dried orange peel
1/8 cup AÑejo or spiced rum
2 teaspoons of cayenne pepper
5 or so kumquats

bring it to a slow boil, then reduce heat...
cook it on low heat all day.
only good to drink after several hours.
best the second day, so make it a day ahead of time.
