It's Claire here, and today I want to share with you a little recipe for something I make a lot during winter - a spiced syrup!
There's something about the combination of spices such as cinnamon and cloves that are just so comforting to me. The smell while making this syrup fills the house with such a calming aroma, and as it keeps really well in the fridge you can use it anytime you need a little something special.
The recipe below is how I like to make my spiced syrup, but the beauty of this recipe is you can adjust it to your own tastes. If you don't like one of the spices I list below, just leave it out. If I don't include something you love, throw it in!

Spiced Syrup
Method:
*Top tip! Lay the orange peel and ginger slices on some parchment paper and pop into the oven on a really low heat for a few hours. This dries them out and makes candied peel and ginger, perfect for garnishing drink or adding to your porridge in the morning!
It's so simple! Here are some of the things I use my spiced simple syrup for:

I’m fascinated by the inclusion of bay leaves with this spice combination – I’ve made a simpler version of spiced syrup before, but this definitely looks interesting.

I love the warm and spicy smell of cooking with cinnamon, cloves, ginger, etc! I’m excited to have the fragrance while it’s making as well as the deliciousness when it’s done!
