Poke 1 t cloves into each orange for Floating Cloved Oranges. Add cider, seasonings, and Floating Cloved Oranges to crockpot; heat at least 1/2 hour, and the longer, the better.

Orange Stars: cut oranges into 1/2" slices. Stick 5 cloves around slice at equal intervals; cut out wedges between cloves. The result looks kind of like a star.
