Around this time of year, I love searching for the perfect hot drink. One of my favorite places to be is curled up in front of the fire with something hot in hand reading a book or perusing a new magazine. This year I sought out to make the perfect mulled spice wine - the result turned out to be a blissful blend of red wine and warm spices. Enjoy!
Ingredients:
- 2 bottles Merlot
- 1/4 cup brandy
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 sliced orange
- 2 cinnamon sticks
- 2 star anise pods
- handful of cranberries
Directions:
- Combine all ingredients together and let simmer on stovetop for 10 minutes. You can let simmer for longer if desired then serve mulled wine in mugs. Decorate with sliced oranges, cranberries, and leftover star anise pods. Serve with classic cocktail napkins (for purchase in our online shop).
