This is a tin tie bag of 2 packets ( 4"X2" each) and 2 cinnamon sticks of my Mulling Spices for making mulled wine,cider or witches brew. It is a blend of dried orange peel, apple pieces, cinnamon bark, and allspice.they come to you in large (tea bag style) ready to use packets that you just drop in to your beverage of choice. (**NOTE** these are not instant and are not intended for microwave use).
Instructions for mulling wine: Into a 4 quart pot or crockpot; pour in about 2 quarts of red sangria or Merlot Wine, and 4-5 cups of Apple Cider (not apple juice), add 1/2 of a orange sliced, and the cinnamon stick. Bring to a simmer on low-medium heat, and simmer for 2-4 hours, serve in mugs. You can also make witches brew by substituting the wine for a equal blend of apple cider and orange juice. To mull cider, just eliminate the wine.
Description #3 by Etsy - thekitchenimp:
Along with gorgeous, aromatic spices, this kit contains recipes for baking and treats.
When you order this set, you receive 4 - 2.5 ounce tins:
pumpkin pie spice,
cinnamon,
mulling spices, and
vanilla sugar.
AND
recipes for cookies and cocktails that employ the spices and sugar.
These tins hold spices both aromatic and versatile. Sure, you can use the pumpkin pie spice in a pumpkin pie, but you can also use it in a festive applesauce that fills your house with beautiful smells. You can use the vanilla sugar in sugar cookies, but you can also use them to coat the rim of a cocktail glass before you fill it with a cranberry vodka cocktail. I'll include suggestions like these (with recipes) with the set.
Please note: your set contains 4 tins. Some spices are dense and heavy, others are quite light, so the weight of the tins differs. The mulling spices are light, for example, and the vanilla sugar is quite heavy.
If you prefer, you can order a baking sampler kit, with smaller tins, that contains pumpkin pie spice, apple pie spice, vanilla sugar, cinnamon, allspice, and ginger. That also comes with recipes.
Replacing your spices:
The vibrant , bright flavors and aromas of your spices enliven your cooking. To maintain that vibrancy, we should all replace our spices frequently. When spices are ground, they are exposed to air. You may not know that this exposure to air allows the oils that create the aroma and much of the flavor of the spices to evaporate. So unless you use a spice often, those jars you buy for $5 to $7 at the grocery store lose most of their pungency and character within 6 months to a year. The exception is roots, such as ginger, which last up to two years. For this reason, the spices you purchase from me come in small tins. I will happily send you a larger size if you find that you use a particular spice frequently, and I also sell refill for tins in small, sealed plastic bags. Most importantly, I source all of my spices from responsible companies that work to take care of their workers and the environment. These companies also sell fresh, whole beautiful spices. I then grind your fresh spices myself, so you receive spices full of aroma and taste. And my shop is here so that when you want to refill those spices, you can do so easily at a discount.
**Please also note: I am happy to fill special requests and special orders. Want something you don't see? Just ask and I'll put it together for for you. Want a quantity you don't see? Let me know and I'll provide it.**
If you live in the Seattle area and you don't want to pay shipping, you may pick up your spices. Just contact me, and I'll post your order as a special order without the shipping.
