Mabel Holdiman gave me this recipe. If I was not making percolator punch, which also makes the house smell great, I would make this and keep it on the stove. Remember that this was before candles and potpourri were everywhere.
1 C. pineapple juice
1 C. water
3 cinnamon sticks
1 tsp. whole cloves
1 tsp. ground ginger
1/2 tsp. pickling spices
Bring to a boil. Add water from time-to-time.
