*How do I make a Simmer Pot?
 
DIRECTIONS:
Place 1 cinnamon stick, 2 star anise, 2 ginger pieces, 3 citrus slices, (4-5 cardamom pods if applicable) and 2-3 tbsp of loose spices/herbs in a pot with 6 c. water. 
Simmer (supervised) for several hours, adding water to pot as needed, for a warm, festive & cozy home! 
Be sure to keep adding water as level gets low. 
You can place contents of used simmer pot in fridge overnight to use again multiple days. 
 
As an extra measure of safety, we recommend starting your simmer pot on the stove, then transfer contents to a SLOW-COOKER, once pot has simmered for about 5-10 minutes. This method will keep your home smelling incredible for 8-10 hours or more.
