Mulled wine
Winter days are short, cold and dark. Luckily we can warm our souls with conviviality and a cup of white or red mulled wine!
Make Your Own Mulled Wine
Here comes our recipe for a gourmet mulled wine, which will delight even the most spoiled palate of any wine fanatic. As for the choice of base wine, we’re sticking to the old adage: only use the same wine for cooking that you would also drink!
Mulled Wine Recipe
You will need:
1 liter red wine (e.g. our Primitivo Onoro Puglia)
1-2 organic oranges
70 g raw sugar
2 cinnamon sticks
3 cloves
A pinch of nutmeg
And this is how to make it:
Quarter the oranges and cut them into slices
Bring the wine, sugar, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg and oranges to a boil in a pan, stirring occasionally.
Remove pan from heat, cover and let steep for about 10 min.
Remove cinnamon sticks and cloves.
Heat up the mulled wine again.
Serve in cups and enjoy.
If you like your mulled wine less sweet, use less sugar. Add a dash of amaretto or rum for that “extra zing.”
