How to spice up your Christmas
Some of my go-to spices for a warm and tasty Chrtistmas:
Mexican Sweet Blend is our own original blend of sweet Mexican flavors: piloncillo (Mexican brown sugar) and canela (Mexican cinnamon). Bake with it, sprinkle it over fruit, stir it into coffee or hot chocolate, or combine it with savory spices for a barbecue rub. Locally made by us in small batches.
A traditional combination of mulling spices for hot spiced cider or warm mulled wine. Cassia cinnamon sticks, green cardamom, allspice berries, whole cloves and anise for a classic warm drink. Locally made by us in small batches.
Our original savory seasoning, created by our founder Lynley. You can use this super-versatile blend on chicken, meat, veggies, pasta, potatoes and more! Herbal and citrusy, it combines the depth of sage with the bright acidity of sumac. Use it in place of salt and pepper, or alongside other seasonings to taste. Made with organic and fair-trade ingredients. Locally made by us in small batches.
1/2 cup -sized jar.
