Apple Cider Syrup

This is good on any pancake or waffle, but it is amazing over  a pumpkin pancake or pumpkin waffles.  I think this would be good over caramel apple pie too or even pumpkin ice cream.  I could go on and on and on...
If you don't have whole cloves or a cinnamon stick, you can you ground.  You could also use a good apple juice instead of the apple cider.
