How to use Mulling Spice

In a saucepan, combine 1 bottle Pinot Noir or Cabernet, 3-4 cups unfiltered apple cider, 2 tablespoons honey, 3 tablespoons Mulling Spice, and the zest and juice of 1 orange. Bring to a boil, then simmer gently for 10-15 minutes. Strain and serve warm with a cinnamon stick.

Spice 101

Mulling spice is a warm, aromatic blend of spices. Traditionally used to infuse hot beverages like cider or wine, it adds cozy, spiced flavors perfect for cold-weather drinks and festive gatherings.

Mulling spices have a storied history, tracing back to medieval Europe where they were used in a variety of drinks to promote health and warmth during the cold months. The practice of mulling wine with spices such as cloves, cinnamon, and nutmeg was particularly popular in Victorian England as a way to make wine more palatable and to add a layer of warmth during the chilly winters. The spices used were believed to have beneficial properties, and the aromatic concoction was a staple at many gatherings.

We love Mulling Spice for its ability to transform simple drinks into festive, heartwarming concoctions. There's nothing quite like a hot mug of mulled cider or wine, infused with our Mulling Spice, to make a winter evening feel special. The rich, spicy aroma that fills the kitchen while it simmers is just as delightful as the taste. It's our go-to for holiday gatherings, providing a simple yet profound way to enhance the seasonal cheer.

Mulling spices aren't just for alcohol! They can be used to infuse non-alcoholic drinks like hot apple cider or cranberry juice for a flavorful, cozy alternative.
