Spiced Mulled Wine
- Total Time: 30 minutes
- Yield: 4 servings (small) 1x
- Category: Beverages
- Cuisine: American
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 bottle of red wine
- 1/4 to 1/2 cup brandy or rum
- 1 orange, juiced & peeled, white pith left behind (or sliced and dried)
- 2 large cinnamon sticks
- 2 star anise
- 4 whole cloves
- 6 allspice berries
- 1/4 to 1 cup sugar
- Orange or dried orange slices and/or cinnamon sticks for garnish.
Instructions
Spices may be gathered in cheesecloth for easy removal if desired.
Place all ingredients except for brandy and garnishes in a saucepan. Heat to just below a simmer, stirring now and then to dissolve sugar, for about 30 minutes or longer to blend spices. May be strained; if spices are left in the flavor will continue to concentrate. The mixture may be added to a slow cooker to keep warm.
Add brandy to taste or pass shots to be added as desired.
Note: Never boil your wine and don’t heat over 173 degrees, if possible. That means don’t boil it and don’t keep it at a simmer.
