Spicy Peach Salad

Here's a good one. A bit different than your run-of-the-mill gelatin salad.

2 (3 oz) pkgs orange gelatin
1 1/4 cups cold water
1 large can sliced peaches
1/2 cup sugar
1/3 cup apple cider vinegar
1 large stick whole cinnamon
12 whole cloves

Drain peaches, reserving juice. Measure juice and water to make 1 1/2 cups liquid. Combine with the sugar, vinegar, and spices. Bring to a boil and simmer 5 minutes. Add sliced peaches; simmer 5 minutes longer. Remove peaches and spices from syrup; set aside peaches and discard the spices. Measure syrup and add boiling water to make 2 1/2 cups. Dissolve the gelatin in the hot syrup by stirring for 3 minutes, then add the cold water. Chill until mixture reaches the consistency of heavy syrup. Add the peach slices; pour into a serving dish. Chill until firm.
