My Spice Sage for instant mulling spices recipe

There's no need to brew up a huge pot of mulled cider or wait until next holiday season to breathe in the wonderful spicy aroma. Revive holiday memories of mulling spices throughout the year, by making your own instant mulling spices recipe.

I ordered 2 ounce bags online from My Spice Sage to try this recipe. I was happy to discover the hard-to-find ground orange peel. I smelled the richness of each spice as soon as I opened the bag. Their customer service was fantastic!

Instant Mulling Spices Recipe by Chica

• 6 cups brown sugar
• 3 tablespoons ground cinnamon
• 2 tablespoons ground orange peel
• 2 tablespoons ground cloves
• 2 tablespoons ground allspice
• 1 tablespoons ground nutmeg

Mix all ingredients together with a whisk and store in an airtight container. For a single serving, add 3 tablespoons of mixture to 1 cup of hot cider, juice, or wine.

If you want more, add 1/2 cup of mixture and 1 cup of water for every 2 cups of cider, juice, or wine. Bring to a boil, stir until dissolved, then reduce to a simmer. Pour into a teapot, cover with a cozy and leisurely sip your way through a good book or a fun hobby.

As the weather warms, stir 2-3 tablespoons of mixture into a glass of cranberry juice and add ice. Use a Kup Kollar to slow down the melting of the ice so your drink won’t water down and lose its taste.
