Tips:

  • Use fresh oranges: Fresh oranges provide the best flavor and nutrients for your warm orange spice drink. Choose oranges that are heavy for their size and have a deep orange color.
  • Grate the orange peel: Grating the orange peel releases the essential oils that give the drink its citrusy aroma and flavor. Be sure to grate the peel only, not the white pith, which can be bitter.
  • Use a variety of spices: The spices in this recipe are just a suggestion. Feel free to experiment with different combinations to find your favorite flavor profile. Some other spices that work well in this drink include cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves.
  • Sweeten to taste: The amount of honey or sugar you add to the drink is up to you. Start with a small amount and add more to taste.
  • Garnish with a cinnamon stick or orange slice: A cinnamon stick or orange slice adds a festive touch to the drink and makes it even more enjoyable to sip.
