8 sticks cinnamon, broken into small pieces
2 whole nutmegs, crushed
1/3 C. whole cloves
1/3 C. minced dried orange peel (or 1/4 C. ground)
1/4 C. whole allspice berries
Optional: garnish with cinnamon sticks, slice of orange, lemon peel
Combine all the ingredients in a bowl. Tie in sachets of 1 tablespoon
each in a double thickness of cheesecloth or I used a coffee filter and tied it with twine; transfer to an airtight
container (perhaps into a canning jar with a decorated lid and tied with
a big bow!!).
One sachet will flavor 1 quart of cider, tea or wine. To
use, simmer 1 quart of the chosen beverage with 1 sachet for 20 minutes;
ladle into mugs.
