For a richer flavor, use unfiltered apple cider. Adjust the amount of brown sugar to your desired sweetness. If you don't have whole cloves, you can substitute 1 teaspoon of ground cloves, but be sure to strain the cider well before serving. For an extra layer of flavor, add a few slices of fresh ginger to the pot while simmering. Consider adding a splash of bourbon or rum for an adult version.
