  • Slowly heat the apple cider and the red hots to melt the candies in juice, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.

  1. Ive made this for years...but with a slight tweak... I add a clove-studded and pierced orange. Also...if you have a Winco near you they stock red hots (generic) in their bulk section year round.
     
  2. This is really wonderful. I cooked on the stove to to begin with to mostly melt all of the red hots. Then I transferred to a crockpot to keep warm all day. So delicious. Will definitely be making next year for Christmas!
     
  3. I’ve been making this since the first time I had it at the baby shower for my first child over 25 years ago. It’s easy and delicious.
     
  4. My mom made this years ago, and I've been meaning to make it again, but red hots are hard to find around here unless it's February. But now that I have the ratio--2 qt juice : 1/2 c red hots! yay!--I'll be making it this Valentine's Day for my hubby.
     
  5. Very good. A nice change from regular apple cider. I couldn't find the Red Hots, so I used Cinnamon Jolly Ranchers, and just crushed them first.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I am a housewife, I love to cook and experiment with different spices and flavors, there are not many recipe ideas I will not try. EXCEPT! anything that is extremely HOT and SPICY, I have a allot of family members living here and most of us spend the holidays together.We all Love to eat and look forward to the different AND the traditional recipes on the Holidays. My pet peeve...HUM it makes me crazy when someone cooks and leaves the mess pile up, It's easier to clean as you go, that way when the food is done you can actually sit down and enjoy it. I am very passionate about and being apart of the fight to prevent animal cruelty, and helping to educate people about what happens to Children or Pets left in vehicles on very hot or very cold days, also Pets left in extreme elements outside without the proper necessities. I believe that anyone that purposely harms or torturers a child or a animal is a Coward!
