I’ve always loved the way Williams Sonoma stores smellespecially around the holiday season.

The aroma was so warm and comforting, and the scent greeted you the moment you crossed the threshold.

Williams Sonoma’s recipe is perfect for the holiday season, and I love that it’s endlessly customizable.

Don’t have oranges?

Sub in lemons or add a splash of vanilla.

Don’t have a jar of mulling spices?

Drop in extra cinnamon sticks or add whole cloves, allspice berries or star anise.
