A great spiced up drink for the holidays, or anytime you want a treat! This would also make a great gift! Put all the dry ingredients into a glass jar with directions, along with some oranges. Enjoy! Ingredients:
1 medium orange |
6 whole cloves |
2 cups water |
2 cups milk |
1/2 cup packed brown sugar |
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder |
2 tablespoons instant coffee crystals |
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract (or rum extract) |
2 sticks cinnamon (2-inch long) |
Directions:
1. Remove peel from orange using a sharp knife or vegetable peeler; set aside. Squeeze juice from the orange; add water, if necessary, to equal 1/3 cup. Set aside.
2. To make the spice bag, place orange peel, cinnamon, and cloves in a double layer square of cheesecloth. Bring up corners; tie with string. If you don't have cheesecloth, just put it in the liquid(below) and strain after heating.
3. In a large saucepan combine orange juice, spice bag, water, milk, brown sugar, cocoa powder, and coffee crystals. Bring to boiling; remove from heat. Cover and let stand for 10 minutes. Remove spice bag. Stir in vanilla or rum extract.
