Mulled Wine

 


I love red wines and sangrias. Here you can make your own mulled wine

perfect for the holiday season.

This recipe serves 6.


What you'll need:

1 750ml bottle of red wine (my favorite is Roscato)

2 oranges

3 cinnamon sticks

5 star anise

10 whole cloves

3/4c brown sugar


Create:

Place all ingredients except the oranges into a medium sized pot.

Using a sharp knife or peeler, peel half of one orange. Avoid peeling as

much of the white part as possible as it has a bitter taste.


Juice the oranges and add to the pot along with the orange peel.

Over medium heat, warm the mixture until just steaming.


Reduce the heat to a low simmer. Heat for 30 minutes to let the spices infuse.

Strain the wine and serve into heat proof cups.
