Warm days....

....call for something cold and refreshing!


I first tasted this while shopping at a favorite shop.  Eager to duplicate it at home, I needed to make a purchase!


Amazing mulling spices....


....dissolved in lemon lime soda and ginger ale!

Using the entire package of mulling spices would need two liters of each.  I divided the package since I didn't need to make four liters!!  

I was able to find the Blue Sky at a local organic market.  No high fructose corn syrup in these - sweetened with real sugar!:-)

It is good to be able to mix it up the day before, then chill it all together overnight.  Fresh orange slices give it a really good flavor, too.

Needless to say, there were no leftovers after our Memorial Day guests were through with it.:-)

  5. Nellie, This looks so refreshing. I used to slice oranges and put them in our iced tea for supper when my girls were little. As soon as I saw that pitcher with oranges...it took me back in time. I'm happy. Blessings, xoxo, Susie

  6. This sounds like a great summer afternoon drink, Nellie. I've used Raven's mulling spice for a hot drink, but not cold. I'll have to give your recipe a try. Enjoy your evening! ♥

  7. I wish it was the case here. Alas, it feels more like a rainy October so far. But without the fiery colours. I would really love to try that drink.
