It can sit in the slow cooker on the warm setting all day, the flavors will just continue to meld as it sits.
Notes
flavor options: whole cloves and nutmeg can also be added.
sweetness: to increase, add additional maple syrup 1 tablespoon at a time.
half the recipe: feel free to cut in half using 1 bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon, 4 cups apple cider and 1/4 cup real maple syrup. We used a large slow cooker and it was pretty full so if yours is smaller/rounder, you definitely might need to halve it!
