The recipes are so easy and really, just guidelines; feel free to switch around the ingredients and create your own perfect combination of scents! And if it doesn’t smell strongly enough, add more ingredients. You can’t “mess up” a simmer pot; as long as you keep the water level full, and you like how it smells, you’re good to go!

  • 1 orange, zested or sliced thin

  • 2 cinnamon sticks

  • 5 star anise

  • 9 whole allspice

  • 9 whole cloves

  • 1 teaspoon nutmeg (or grate a whole nutmeg)

  • pine twigs

  • 9 juniper berries (gently crush before adding to the pot to release the scent)

  • 1 lemon, zested or sliced thin

  • 3 sprigs of fresh rosemary

  • 10 fresh mint leaves

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Super easy, super cheap, and beyond beautiful when the rich and lush scents are filling up your home on a winter evening!!
