Its real simple I make it in 3gal batches cause that works best for me here it is
you need
1 5gal glass carboy
1 gal apple cider fresh made if you can get it
1 gal apple juice fresh mashed if you can
1 gal of your best shine I use 100 proof up to you
1 qt honey or caro syrup your choice
1 container of cinnamon sticks I get mine from sams club
2 tablespoons of nutmeg
in a large kettle or pot heat up the apple cider and the apple juice but don't let it boil when warm add the honey nutmeg and cinnamon sticks stir it good till it is well mixed allow to cool down then add your shine now for the fun part pour in your carboy and put it in your refrigerator for at least 3 weeks 4 is better then bottle it up.
now I have a SIL that dries out apples with cinnamon for me so I add 5 or 6 pieces to each bottle and watch them rehydrate and I believe it adds something to the batch
