Put all mulling spices in cheesecloth and make a sachet.
Add the sachet and all ingredients into a heavy bottomed nonreactive pot and bring to a boil and bring to a simmer over low heat until most of the cranberries have burst and apples have cooked through, about ½ hour. Remove the pot from heat and keep mulling spices in compote until cool. Take the sachet of mulling spices out before serving.
