​​Mulled Cider
Ingredients: 
Add 1/2 cup Mulling Spices into the muslin bag and add that to 1 gallon of cider. You can cook this on your stovetop or in a crockpot.

Let it simmer for at least one hour though the intensity will continue to deepen the longer you leave in the spices.

When ready, ladle mulled cider into heatproof glasses or mugs and adorn with cinnamon sticks if desired.

Fresh cranberries or orange slices may be added as well for garnish.
Mulled Wine (pictured)​
  • 1   750mL Bottle of Red Wine (any fruity, full-bodied cheaper wine)
  • 1 Clementine or Orange (optional)
  • 1/2 cup NHHS Mulling Spices
  • 1 Packet of Sugar
​
Directions
  1. On your stovetop, add the contents of sugar packet and rinds of a clementine or orange (not included and optional) into a saucepan on medium heat. Give the remainder of the orange a squeeze to add in some of the juices as well.  Add in the packet of Mulling Spices. Slowly blend this all together while adding in enough wine to just cover it all.
  2. Let this simmer until the sugar has completely dissolved into the red wine, then bring to a boil for 5-7 minutes.  Making this sugar and wine syrup base is important to infuse the flavors and volatile oils of the spices and citrus into the wine at a high temperature. By heating the wine at such a high temperature some of the alcohol will be burned off and this is the reason that the remainder of the wine is added later and at a lower temperature. 
  3. When your sugar and spice syrup is ready, turn the heat down to low and add the remainder of the bottle of wine. Gently heat the wine and spices until it’s warm throughout and well blended. Strain and pour into mugs or heatproof glasses and garnish with a cinnamon stick to serve. Fresh cranberries or oranges may be added as additional garnish.
 
*Mulled wine can be made in a crockpot as well by making the sugar syrup base beforehand and pouring into the crockpot along with the remainder of wine and kept on low simply to warm.
Stovetop Simmer 
Add 3 cups of water and ½ cup of the Mulling Spices and the packet of Orange Slices and allow to simmer on your stovetop or on your woodstove. You can continue to add water as it simmers off for as long as you’d like being very careful to not let the water burn off completely. This can also be done in a crockpot and left on low or warm throughout the day. Enjoy.
