1/4 cup maple syrup or liquid honey
3 cups water
6 each whole cloves and cardamoms
1/4 tsp mixed spice

Tips/Hints

• For extra ‘warmth’ add ﾽ cup rum to pot before serving
• Top with 2 Tbsp whipped cream – it tastes like Blackcurrant pie!
• This recipe also works well with Barker’s Blackcurrant & Raspberry , Blackcurrant & Boysenberry or Blackcurrant & Cranberry fruit syrups

 Ensure the maple syrup you use is gluten free.
