I have been making this the past couple of evenings for a night time treat. Matt and I have curled up with our mugs and have watched a couple of movies. It is really easy, makes your kitchen smell yummy, and is cheap because there is no need to use nice wine in this recipe. So... make yourself a pot tonight and enjoy!
I have tried two different recipes, but we liked this one best:
Mulled Wine
-3 cups red wine
-1 cup sweet vermouth
-1 cup orange juice*
-1T sugar or to taste
-various holiday spices** (I used ground cardamom, ginger, nutmeg, and cinnamon sticks)
Combine all ingredients and simmer at least 20 minutes on the stove top.
This made enough for about 3 large mugs.
*You can also use apple cider
**I also used a spice bouquet one night, it was good, but I felt like the ground spices lent more flavor. The ones that don't dissolve will just sink to the bottom.
