Bring the cider, 1 cup of Snap, cinnamon, vanilla and your clove apple (meat &amp; clove-side DOWN) to a slow boil over low heat. Cover, and allow it to simmer for about 10-20 minutes to get the spice flavors all mixed in. Remove from heat and add the remaining Snap and Brandy (you don&#8217;t want to cook off all the alcohol, so it&#8217;s best not to add it all too soon). Serve as soon as it&#8217;s cool enough to drink with a cinnamon stick.<\/p>\n<p>Not necessary, but I pour into cups through a strainer to remove any errant cloves.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.homespeakeasy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/PA010007.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-423 alignright\" title=\"PA010007\" src=\"https:\/\/www.homespeakeasy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/PA010007-294x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"294\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.homespeakeasy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/PA010007-294x300.jpg 294w, https:\/\/www.homespeakeasy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/PA010007.jpg 573w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 294px) 100vw, 294px\" \/><\/a>NOTES<\/strong>: I&#8217;ve been tinkering with hot ciders for a few years now, subbing in rums, whiskeys, brandies, etc. It&#8217;s really hard to go wrong with hot cider, but I really like what the Snap did to this one, and I think this is my favorite so far. It also seems to taste better with unfiltered, organic cider. You&#8217;ll get a whole mess of sediment in it, but if you just stir it up with the cinnamon, it distributes right back through the drink.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>6 Cups Apple Cider 2 Cups SNAP 1 Cup Brandy 3 Cinnamon Sticks 1 Vanilla Bean 1 small handful of whole Cloves 1\/2 Granny Smith Apple Take your half apple and cram all the cloves into the meat of it (shown below).
