Crockpot Apple Cider

Directions

1. 1
   Place chopped apples, orange, brown sugar, water, cinnamon and cloves in a slow cooker. Use enough water so that fruit is submerged in the crockpot. Cover and set to low for 6 to 7 hours.
2. 2
   After 6 or 7 hours, strain cider through a wire strainer, pressing mixture into strainer slightly. Discard any remaining solids. Strain cider again through a very fine mesh (like a cheese cloth), stirring to allow more liquid to pass through the cloth.
3. 3
   Save remaining solids as this is your applesauce! Place the cider and apple sauce is serving dishes.
4. 4
   Store the cider in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
5. 5
   Note: Cheese cloths can be purchased at kitchen specialty stores or even at your local Target or Walmart! They usually are around $2 to $3.
