Ingredients
  

  • 10-12 apples (quartered, I use honeycrisp and granny smith)
  • 1 pomegranate (quartered (optional))
  • 1 orange (quartered)
  • 2 teaspoon cinnamon sticks
  • 2-6 tablespoons maple syrup (depending on your taste)
  • 1/2 teaspoon whole cloves

Instructions
 

  • Combine apples, pomegranate, orange, cinnamon sticks, and 2 tablespoons maple syrup in a crockpot. Add 5-6 cups of water to cover ingredients. Cook on low for 6-7 hours or high for 4-5 hours.
  • Alternatively, combine all ingredients in a large soup pot and cook over medium heat for 3 hours, or until apples begin to break down.
  • Carefully strain the mixture through a mesh strainer, discarding the fruit and cinnamon sticks. Strain again if a smoother cider is desired.
  • Taste the cider and adjust maple syrup to your preference. Serve warm or cold. Store in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
