This is DELICIOUS! I loved it. All the citrus gave this a wonderful tang, and the cider made it just sweet enough. I did add a few more cinnamon sticks, but we love cinnamon. I think a great addition would be some black tea for a nice spiced morning tea. Made and Reviewed for Football Pool. Thanks! :)
