Mulled Wine

From wrapping up presents for family and friends to a cosy night in on Christmas Eve, this winter warmer is sure to put you in the festive spirit.

Mulled Wine

Preparation Time: 20 minutes

Serves: 6

Cooking Time: 30 minutes

_________________________________________________________________

A festive favourite, this zingy mulled wine is the perfect drink for any occasion this Christmas!

_________________________________________________________________

Ingredients
  • 1 Bottle of Red Wine (preferably dry)
  • 2 Large Unwaxed Oranges (sliced)
  • 2 Cinnamon Sticks
  • 2 tsp Allspice
  • 3 tsp Whole Cloves
  • 2 tbsp Demerara Sugar (add more to taste if required)
  • 1 Carton of Orange Juice (we recommend 70cl but this can be altered to your taste)
  • 1 Whole Lemon, Quartered

_________________________________________________________________

Method
  1. Thickly slice the oranges and place all the ingredients into a large saucepan (keep the cinnamon sticks whole).
  2. Bring to the boil. Once boiling, cover with a lid, reduce the heat and allow to simmer for 15 minutes.
  3. Continue stirring. If required, add more sugar to taste.
  4. Use the quartered lemon to coat the rim of each glass or mug with lemon juice. This offsets the sweetness and spices of the full bodied mulled wine and adds flavour and depth.
  5. Serve and enjoy!

Tips...

  • Star anise is also a great addition to this drink - simply place one in each of the mugs just before serving.
  • Use a muslin cloth to keep the cinnamon sticks and cloves together - tie the top with cotton thread to make it into a small parcel that can easily be removed once the mulled wine is finished.
  • Try pushing the whole cloves into the orange slices to make serving easier.
  • You can also use a sieve to remove the cinnamon and spices if preferred. Although we think it's nice to have a few of the spices in your drink... it slows down the drinking!
