One of my great friends made a mug of this for me one winters day. She told me how her family always takes it along on camping trips. I just couldn't leave without the recipe. I have enjoyed making it for my family and now this year I am filling liquid creamer bottles with it, decorating them as snowmen, and passing them out for teacher gifts. I'm happy to share it with the JAP community as well.

How to Make Fireside Coffee Mix

Step-by-Step

Mix all the ingredients thoroughly and store in a well sealed container
To make a cup, stir 3 heaping teaspoons into a cup of water.

To be quite honest, I use more of the mix per cup than this because I fill my mug up and/or use a cappuccino size mug.
This is great on road trips, camping trips, to give as gifts in pretty containers, or just to keep on hand at home all winter long.
