The doorbell goes just as you reach for the ladle. Scarves are unwound, cheeks are rosy, and the scent of spice and citrus offers its own welcome. Pour something warm and let everyone settle in.

This fragrant blend brings together warming spices and dried citrus peel for mulling wine, cider or apple juice. Cassia bark, cloves, allspice and star anise sit alongside coriander, orange and lemon peel, ready to bring seasonal character to your chosen drink.

Keep a pot in the cupboard for gatherings, planned or spontaneous. A warm apple juice is just as much part of the occasion as mulled wine or cider, so everyone can have their own welcome in a cup.
