Mulling Spices

Our Mulling Spice Blend is a harmonious symphony of warm, aromatic, and slightly citrusy flavors. The carefully curated combination of Cinnamon, Nutmeg, Orange Peel, Star Anise, Cardamom, Allspice, Cloves, Peppercorns, Lemon Peel, and Ginger creates a rich and complex profile. The dominant notes are the sweet warmth of cinnamon and nutmeg, complemented by the citrusy brightness of orange and lemon peel, the licorice-like essence of star anise, the sweet and spicy undertones of cardamom, the warmth of allspice, the intense and pungent flavor of cloves, the subtle heat from peppercorns, and the zesty kick of ginger.

The primary use of this spice blend is for mulling beverages. Whether it's wine, cider, or even non-alcoholic options like apple juice or tea, this blend adds depth and warmth. Simply simmer for 20 minutes with your chosen beverage, strain, and enjoy a comforting, spiced drink.
