INSTRUCTIONS
Warm yourself with this fragrantly spiced, nonalcoholic beverage after
a frosty night of caroling. Mix the water and sugar in a large non
aluminum saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer 5
minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the cloves, allspice,
cinnamon and ginger. Let the mixture stand for 1 hour or longer.
Strain into a bowl and return to the saucepan. Stir in the apple
cider, orange juice and lemon juice. Serve in mugs with a slice of
butter on top and a cinnamon stick. Note: The punch may be prepared
several hours ahead and reheated before serving, if desired. From
