*If you want it strong, you can put in a liter of Everclear. If it will be used for a Christmas or party drink just use a 750 ml size bottle.

Directions: Put the apple cider and the sugar in one pan and the apple juice and the cinnamon sticks in another pan. Bring them both to a simmer. Stir them both enough to disolve the sugar in the cider and to mix the cinnamon. Remove the cinnamon sticks after about 5 minutes or until the taste is all out of them and they "taste like wood sticks". Cool. Then mix together."
