    Winter Mulled Wine

    Published: Mar 21, 2014 · Modified: Aug 19, 2022 by Andrea

    Jump to Recipe

    Mulled wine means Christmas time everywhere, but it's such a great drink to warm your nights up, that you can enjoy it all winter long!

    The combination of spices, red wine and citrus fruits makes Mulled wine a drink hard to beat during the cold season; It warms you up and also helps you with coughs. - Great excuse, ah?!-

    It's super simple and fast to prepare, play with different spices to find your perfect combo and leave it to a very gentle simmer so that all the flavors can get to know each other and bound.

    Time to call your friends and spend the night in, cheers!
