Mulled Cranberry Sipper

This is an interesting twist to the usual Hot Mulled Wine! 

Alcoholic Mulled Cranberry Sipper:

6 c. cranberry cocktail

3 c. orange juice

¼ c. packed brown sugar

2 - 3-in. cinnamon sticks

1 tsp. whole allspice

½ tsp. whole cloves

1 c. orange liqueur

Combine all ingredients except orange liqueur in large saucepan. Heat to boiling and reduce heat, simmering 10 min. Strain to remove spices (alternately, remove spices bundled in a 6-inch square of cheesecloth tied with string). Stir in orange liqueur. Serve hot, from large crock pot or coffee urn. Makes 20 servings, using four-ounce punch glasses.
