Hot Apple Cider
Morroccan Carrot Spread
4 - 10 whole cloves
1 thin slice of fresh ginger
4 cups of organic apple juice
2 - 6 green cardamom pods
1/2 - 1 whole cinnamon stick
1. Heat the apple juice and stir in the spices on a stove or in a Crockpot.
2. If using a Crockpot, start it a few hours ahead of time, or heat on the stove then transfer to the Crockpot.
Before pouring the hot apple cider, you may also think about rimming the edge of the glass with sugar for a nice decorative touch. To do this, cut a slit in a wedge of lime, and run it around the edge of the top. Then, spread out sugar on a plate and place the glass upside down, letting the sugar stick to the lime. Garnish with a cinnamon stick.

1/4 cup of cornstarch
1 large egg
