Notes
If you will be serving this beverage for a lengthy period of time, be sure to keep the crock pot on low, covered with the lid, to keep the drink warm and to prevent evaporation. If you notice the drink evaporating, you will want to add more juice. You will want to have at least one cinnamon stick and orange wheel for each glass you plan to serve if you are using the garnishes.
