McCormick® Whole Cinnamon Sticks, Rich Cinnamon Flavor, 8 oz

Hand-selected McCormick® Cinnamon Sticks add sweet warmth and spicy aroma to hot beverages, curries & slow-cooked stews. The slightly spicy and comforting aroma of cinnamon reminds us of winter holidays and family gatherings. For cozy seasonal drinks, use a stick as a stirrer for coffee & hot cocoa or simmer it in apple cider or mulled red wine around the holidays. Home cooks can use cinnamon sticks for tea or as a garnish for cocktails. Cinnamon sticks also infuse slow-cooked stews, braised short ribs, Indian curries and Vietnamese pho noodle soup with rich fragrance and flavor. Place a stick in the pot to add sweetness when poaching fruit or cooking applesauce, rice pudding, or oatmeal. Did you know? Cinnamon comes from the bark of the tropical cinnamon tree. As the harvested bark dries, it curls up into quills or sticks. Cinnamon powder is made by grinding these sticks. Looking to pair your cinnamon sticks with other spices? Cinnamon can also complement ginger, clove, turmeric, and black pepper, in a variety of dishes. During the holiday season, use this mulling spice in festive beverages or to infuse desserts and baked goods.
