Recipes for the Holidays

by Christine, on

During the holidays, we all come closer together and spend some wonderful hours together. You spend time with your family, laugh with your friends and meet people that you may have neglected over the year. For these cozy moments during the cold December, we share two recipes with you – one for mulled wine and for for a coconut poppyseed cake that fits perfectly.

The Green Pearls team wishes a Happy Holidays!
