Ingredients
- Jar. Any brand, any size.
- Sliced oranges
- Sliced lemons
- Cranberries
- Fresh Soli Organic rosemary
- Fresh Soli Organic thyme
- Whole cloves
- Water
- Whatever else brings you holiday bliss!
Directions
- First, get a clean jar.
- take however many sprigs of rosemary and thyme you'd like and put them in your jar.
- Slice your oranges and lemons. Once completed, slide them into your jar.
- Grab a handful or two of cranberries and put them on top of your citrus. These little guys tend to float, so having them on top is best.
- Fill the remaining space in your jar with water.
- Screw the lid back on, dress it up, give it a bow, make it your own!
- When ready to fill your home with the smell of holiday spirit, just empty the entire jar into a pot on your stovetop. Bring it to a simmer and let the aroma fill you with cheer! Should the water evaporate too soon for your liking, just add more water to extend your simmer session.
If you’re feeling extra spirited, you can turn this into a quick cocktail! Simply pour your simmered liquid into a glass, add a splash of simple syrup, your favorite spirit, and top with a sprig of rosemary and maybe a cranberry or two. Last step, enjoy!
