Mix sugar, water and spices. Boil sugar mixture for 10 minutes. Cover and let stand one hour in a warm place; strain.

 

When ready to serve, add juices and cider. Heat quickly to boiling point.

 

To serve, pour hot mixture over fruit, studded with cloves, in a punch bowl. If using a glass bowl, temper by filling with warm water to prevent cracking when hot punch is poured in.
