Holiday Stove Top Potpourri Mix
(NOT for human consumption)
www.make-it-do.com/
Ingredients:
one whole orange or just the orange peel
1/2 cup cranberries
1 Tbsp. whole cloves
3 sticks of cinnamon or a small handful of small pieces of cinnamon
a bit of grated nutmeg if desired
Instructions:
Quarter the orange.
Put all the ingredients into a saucepan.
Fill pan with water.
Place on the stove on the smallest burner, on the lowest setting.
Refill water as needed.
It’s just that easy.
I love to use an orange that is starting to get old… or just use the peel of an orange.
Another important tip is don’t allow the water to completely evaporate. I always refill the water when I turn it on. One mix stays good for weeks. With heating the mix does turn brown, but continues to smell wonderful, so I usually make only batch in a season.
It’s not the Holidays without the delicious scent… it makes me think of cranberry sauce or wassail. Yum.
