You might want to look at this file in the BEVERAGES section of my
Florilegium:
spiced-wine-msg   (12K) 10/ 8/99    Spiced wines. Hippocras. Recipes.

I've heard of a wider variety of spices being put in wine, but I don't
know why most of them would not also be good in cider. Except hypoccras
often seems to have used sharper spices like pepper while I think of
cider spices as being sweeter ones. But that may be a 20th century 
mindset.
