Spice and slightly sweet from a hint of maple syrup |
I really need to get a circle punch. Or, cut the labels out before 3 glasses of merlot. |
There are tons of recipes out there, and they are all easy to make. This is one I like because they are slightly sweet from the maple syrup, slightly spicy, a touch zesty from the cayenne pepper and finished with a sprinkle of sea salt makes them just right in my book. Leave out the cayenne, or add more if you prefer.
I have included a downloadable sheet of labels for you to use — or customize your own!
