Simmer pots are easy to make, better for you than scented candles, and fully customizable! You can choose any combination of fruit and spices you like and try different combinations until you find ones that suit your preferences. For this demo I chose a warm cranberry-orange profile.

Step 1: Prepare Fruit

I started by measuring out one cup of cranberries and cutting one orange into wedges. You can odd more or less to your preference.

Step 2: Adding Ingredients to Pot

I added my fruit, spices, and extract to the pot.

In addition to the cranberries and oranges, I chose:

3 Cinnamon Sticks

1Tbsp Whole Cloves

1Tbsp All Spice Berries

1Tsp Vanilla

Step 3: Add Water

Add water just over the top of the ingredients.

Step 4: Bring to Boil

You'll want to bring your ingredients to a rolling boil.

Step 5: Reduce to Simmer

Reduce your stove temp to low to maintain a simmer.
