These simmer pots recipes will make your house smell cozy and also remove any bad vibes. ✨ ✨ 

If there’s anything that I’ve recently learned and have been obsessed with, are simmer pot recipes. They make your house smell amazing, adds cozyness to the vibe and if you are into witchy things, then they are also great for negative cleance, abundance calling and so on. You just gotta set the intention.

So, what are simmer pots? Well, they’re basically the original “scented candle,” only way more natural and intentional. All you have to do is take a pot of water, toss in fruits, herbs, and spices, and let it gently bubble on the stove until your whole home smells like coziness.

Is there a meaning behind it? Id’ say: yes. For centuries, different cultures have simmered herbs and botanicals not just for fragrance, but also for their energetic properties; think of it as a fruity magical kitchen passed down through time.

Oranges for abundance, cinnamon for warmth, rosemary for protection… every ingredient carries a meaning. Today, simmer pots are used both as a beautiful ritual for clearing energy and as a simple way to make a home smell incredible. So, now that that is out of the way, let’s talk recipes.
