Susan’s Homemade Mulled Wine: #Recipe

by Susan P. Cooper · on Dec 8, 2012 · 43  

This Homemade Mulled Wine is a warm and comforting drink during the holidays with friends.  In the chilly days of winter, it is  always welcome in our home.  This recipe is one of our favorites; it’s super easy to make and makes a great gift for foe anyone for a holiday or any special occasion.  I will locate a nice decorative bottle, label it and add some raffia or ribbon, and I am good to go.

Ingredients:

  • 2 bottles of dry red wine
  • 4 ounces ruby port or orange brandy
  • 12 whole cloves
  • 4 cinnamon sticks
  • 4 tablespoons of sugar
  • Optional: Garnish with Cinnamon sticks or freshly ground nutmeg

Directions:

Combine ingredients in a large pot and bring to a simmer. DO NOT BOIL.  Simmer for 20 minutes then let the spices  steep until desired strength of flavor is reached.  Remove the spices and serve or chill the remaining mulled wine in a decorative bottle and warm when ready to serve.

Homemade Mulled Wine, findingourwaynow.comNotes: A very low simmer is very important.  The kind of red wine you use will make a difference in the taste.  I prefer a heavier-bodied wine for this recipe because of the depth of flavors it imparts.  I generally use an orange liquor such as Cointreau because of the orange flavor. I will actually heat a glass of this mulled wine in the microwave to warm for 45 to 60 seconds as a nice treat for myself.

This Homemade Mulled Wine is delightful for the unexpected guest on a cold and blustery night or by yourself in front of a fire.  It’s especially nice for my guest when I hand them a bottle to take home as a gift.  Enjoy.

Time to for a glass…
