One of my very favorite things as a kid at Christmas time was my mom's simmering Christmas in a pot on the stove.
I've come up with my own this year and oh man, love it!!!
Here's how I made it:
1 whole sliced naval orange
1 cup of fresh cranberries
4 fresh cinnamon sticks (snapped in half)
2 teaspoons ground cloves
2 teaspoons nutmeg
1 strand of fresh pine needles (I tore off a live wreath we had because we have artificial trees)
Add about 1 1/2 cups of water, apple juice or apple cider.
Let simmer.
You control how strong or mild you want the smell by how high or low your heat!
Enjoy!!
Forever Farias.
