🍁 the spice age – Just Mull It Over Mulling Spices, 60g

When the air turns crisp and snow soon follows you need a cup of hot beverage mulled with spices to warm you up. Adding the warming flavours and aromas of spices to hot cider or wine is a centuries-old European tradition. In medieval times mulled wines were thought to help keep people healthy through the cold winters, and were called Ypocras or Hipocris after the great Greek physician Hippocrates. In Victorian England, hot mulled wine was even given to children. Whatever the health effects may be, there is no denying that a hot cup of mulled beverage is just what is needed to bring warm cheer on a cold night!
