Mulled Wine Recipe
Ingredients
1 lemon or orange
6 sticks of cinnamon
12 whole cloves
¼ teaspoon nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon ginger
1/8 teaspoon allspice
red wine
¼ cup sugar
Method
Combine the spices and citrus in a dry red wine, such a Burgundy. Add ¼ cup of sugar. Heat this through for at least 15 minutes, but don’t boil. A clean large coffee pot is a great method for heating the wine.
Use an inexpensive wine for this recipe, but don’t get something that tastes absolutely horrible.
Serve immediately with warm mince pies and lots of Christmas goodwill.
