Infused with cardamom, cloves, cinnamon and nutmeg, this beautifully fragrant Spiced Marmalade Syrup from mixologist Kate Hawkings is Christmas in a bottle. It comes into its own in Kate’s steaming Spiced Marmalade Rum Punch or stirred into hot chocolate, but try drizzling over ice cream too. When storing the syrup, be sure to sterilise your bottles: wash them and their lids, then pop on a tray in the oven at 180°C/160°C fan/gas 4 for 15 mins. Time and servings
