Seasoned Cooking has been published since 1998. And, since we have a soft spot for holidays and seasonal happenings, that means that there's a treasure trove of great articles on special events, like Halloween. So, this month, I'm offering a quick look back at some Halloween-themed articles from past issues. Won't you join me in exploring everything from party planning to making treats over the years? To begin, let's start with something new. Here's a simple Halloween Punch recipe that comes to you from Victoria Smith:
Mix all of the ingredients together in a saucepan. Heat the punch over low heat until you are ready to serve it. Remove the cinnamon sticks. Ladle into serving cups.
You can double or triple this recipe, according to how many guests you have.
Yields: 8 servings
Preparation Time: 15 minutes
Now that you have a toasty beverage in hand, enjoy the blast from the past!
