I love holiday candles and scents! You’ll usually find some sort of candle burning at our home all throughout the holiday season. I just love the cozy atmosphere it creates! However, there are times when the candles are put away and simmer pots full of wonderful herbs, spices and fruits are put on the stove top. Nothing can compete with the gorgeously delicious aromas that fill the house when these all natural ingredients warm and simmer.
I love giving little gift bags full of ingredients for cozy simmer pots to friends and family too! They make thoughtful little hostess gifts that say “thank you for having us over,” as well as perfect party favors to send home with your special guests.
To make a holiday simmer pot gift, simply use the recipe card below and add ingredients to a clear treat bag. Tie with a bow, add a gift tag and you’re ready to give a little a bit of the holidays! To use the ingredients, simply empty them into a small crock pot or sauce pan on the stove top. Cover with water. Turn the heat on low and breathe deep as the spices warm and fill your home!
There’s nothing like the smells of the holiday to create a warm and welcoming home! And with a simmer pot, you can give beautiful gifts that will help friends and family deck the halls too.
