Notes
I always sift the spices before mixing because it breaks up any clumps, especially in cinnamon and ground ginger. This keeps the blend smooth and even, which is key when you add it to batters, pies, or drinks.Use fresh spices: I always check that my spices are fresh because old spices lose their strength and the blend will not taste as warm or fragrant.Mix in a wide bowl: I use a medium sized bowl with room to stir so the spices combine evenly without spilling.Shake before using: I give the jar a quick shake before adding the spice blend to recipes so all the flavors stay well mixed.Make-Ahead: You can make this up to 1 month ahead of time.How to Store: Cover and keep in a cool dark place for up to 3 months.
