Combine the apple cider, cranberry juice, lemon juice, pineapple juice, and orange slices in a large saucepan or pot. Add the spices of your choice, including cloves, honey, sugar, and cinnamon sticks, as well as nutmeg, ginger, and allspice. Place the saucepan over high heat and bring the mixture to a rolling boil.

Once boiling, lower the heat to a gentle warmth and continue to cook for 10 to 15 minutes, stirring periodically to prevent scorching.
