Holiday Spice Recipes

Holiday Spice Mulled Cider

Non-alcoholic

Ingredients

4 cups apple cider

1 thinly sliced orange

2 teaspoons Pure Spice, or to taste

Holiday Spice Mulled Wine

Contains alcohol

Ingredients

1 bottle (750ml) dry red wine

1 thinly sliced orange, peeled

2 teaspoons Pure Spice, or to taste

Cinnamon sticks, for garnish

Honey or sugar to taste

Method

Place all ingredients on a pot on the stove over medium heat. Bring to a light simmer. Stir and allow to cook 5 - 10 minutes. Reduce heat to low and cover, cooking until spices have released their flavours, 10-20 minutes. Taste, and add more pure spice if desired. As this is a herbal tisane, it will not make the cider astringent with long steeping times. Pour into your cup of choice, garnish, pour + enjoy!

We love the versatility of this tisane ::

GINGER ROOT, CARDAMOM, CINNAMON, BLACK PEPPER, CLOVES

Created and hand blended at Westholme this mélange of traditional Indian Masala spices packed with flavour and a gentle peppery bite. This versatile tisane can be steeped and enjoyed as it is or cooked with milk (or a milk alternative), to create an excellent herbal chai. Add honey or a touch of pure maple syrup. Also excellent to add to a spiced soup or a curry.

Tasting Notes: Complex peppery flavours are rooted in earthy tones of clove and ginger. Cardamom and cinnamon weave natural sweetness into each sip.

Brewing Instructions: Add 2 grams of Holiday Spice per cup, pour 100ºC water over herbal blend and steep for 3-5 minutes.
