Mulled Wine (Warm, Spiced & Celebration-Ready)
A warm, spiced wine infused with citrus and classic aromatics—simple to prepare, beautifully fragrant, and made for cozy celebrations.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ large oranges or 2 medium
- 1 750 ml bottle red wine
- 2 cinnamon sticks
- 5 whole cloves
- 2 star anise
- 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
Instructions
- Cut oranges into segments and remove the outside peel. Slice segments in half, add to the bottom of a large saucepan and muddle to release their natural juices. Pour in the wine, spices and honey. Gently mix everything together.
- Heat over medium flame until you see the tiniest of bubbles form (it’s important to watch the pan and catch the beginning of a gentle simmer in order to prevent the alcohol from burning off). Reduce heat to low, cover the pan, and simmer for just 5 to 10 minutes.
- Strain the mixture, discard solid pieces, and pour into glasses. Garnish with optional star anise, orange slices, cinnamon sticks or anything else you prefer.
