Betty demonstrates how to make her Hot Spiced Apple Cider. It's getting to be just the right time of year here in Kentucky when a nice, hot drink is appealing. This Hot Spiced Apple Cider is flavored with cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, and cloves. You can make it with either apple cider or apple juice. It's great for children, too! Chilly Day Hot Spiced Apple Cider 2 quarts apple cider (You may substitute apple juice, if you prefer.) ½ cup firmly-packed light brown sugar 2 whole nutmegs 4 cinnamon sticks 16 whole cloves 16 whole allspice In a large saucepan, combine 2 quarts apple cider (or apple juice) and ½ cup brown sugar. Tie spices (2 whole nutmegs, 4 cinnamon sticks, 16 whole cloves, and 16 whole allspice) in a cheesecloth bag; crush with a mallet, and add to the saucepan. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove spice bag, and ladle Hot Spiced Apple Cider into mugs and serve. This Hot Spiced Apple Cider tastes great with Betty's Pumpkin Molasses Muffins, and the two make a perfect combination during fall, winter, and early spring! Cheers!

PCOS-Friendly Foods in This Recipe

This recipe contains the following foods that may benefit PCOS management: Cinnamon.

Cinnamon is one of the best ingredients that someone with insulin sensitivity can eat. Half a teaspoon of cinnamon per day has been shown to be very effective at normalizing blood sugar levels. Cinnamon contains hydroxychalcone, which is thought to enhance the effects of insulin. It has also been suggested that Cinnamon prevents post-meal blood sugar spikes by slowing the gastric emptying rate - meaning that food digests slowly.
