Mulling
spices
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mulling spices is a spice mixture
used in drink recipes. The spices are usually used to spice hot apple cider,
mulled wine,
wassail,
and other drinks (such as juices) during the autumn or winter.[1]
A "mulled" drink is a drink which has been prepared with these spices
(usually through heating the drink in a pot with mulling spices and then
strained). Mulling spices may also be added to the brewing process to make
spiced beer.
The combination of spices varies,
but it usually consists of cinnamon,
cloves,
allspice,
and nutmeg;
and less frequently star anise, peppercorn or cardamon. It also usually includes dried fruit (such as raisins,
apples
or orange rind). Mulling spices can also be bought prepackaged.[2]
