Instructions

1
Combine the apple cider, cinnamon sticks, cloves, star anise, allspice berries, orange rounds, brown sugar, and ground nutmeg in a large saucepan over medium heat. Stir once to dissolve the sugar.
2
Heat, stirring occasionally, until the cider just begins to steam and small bubbles form around the edges — do not let it reach a full boil. Reduce the heat to low.
