Around the holidays, I used to love mixing up a batch of
this lovely Apple Cider mix, jar it up, and give it out as gifts to friends and
family. Everyone loved it so much that I gave it out in larger jars to those who
begged me for more.
Ingredients
4 cups sugar
4 tablespoons ground cinnamon
½ tablespoon ground nutmeg
½ tablespoon ground cloves
Instructions
I used 8-oz jars for the images, but you can
use 4-oz jars just as well if it's for a small present, or if you're making a
large amount (eg as party favors).
Get your ingredients and your preferred jars ready.
Mix all ingredients in a large bowl – I use a whisk to get
the spices evenly distributed.
Fill the mix into individual jars, or store in a large
airtight container if you're making a big batch for an event.
Use about 1 tablespoon per quart of liquid. Less sweet liquids (like wine or cranberry juice) can use a little more.
