Name: Cranberry Hot Toddy
Yield: Makes 16 cups
Ingredients: 4 tangerines; 1/3 cup whole cloves; 3 quarts pure unsweetened cranberry juice; 2 cups sugar, or to taste; 3 cups amber rum if desired

We preferred pure cranberry juice in this recipe but it's possible to substitute the more commonly available cranberry juice cocktail — simply omit the sugar called for.
