Directions
To a large 10 qt dutch oven, add water and apple flavoring, orange slices, cinnamon sticks, star anise, whole cloves, whole allspice, and ginger root. (If you have a spice ball, add clove and allspice to that. It’s easier cleanup)
Bring mixture to a boil. Reduce to simmer for 2-3 hours.
Add rum to the apple cider mixture and simmer for another 10 minutes.
Remove fruit and spices from the pot.
Garnish with an apple or orange slice, a cinnamon stick (good for stirring) or an adorable star anise.
