Fancy making your own mulled wine? Have a go at this recipe

One of my favourite things about Christmas is mulled wine.

I love Christmas food in general, especially when it contains lots of cinnamon and spices, but mulled wine is my absolute favourite. Last Christmas ended up being a bit of a disaster in the mulled wine department as I managed to go the whole holiday season without getting a single glass of it. I decided that this year, to make sure that I definitely get to have some that I'm going to make my own mulled wine, and if you would like to do the same have a look at this super simple recipe.

Ingredients

1 Bottle of red wine  1 Orange 1 Lemon 1 Spoon of maple syrup or honey 1 Sachet of mulled wine mix or 2 cinnamon sticks Wash the orange & lemon thoroughly. Cut both of them into small pieces with the skin still on it. Place them in a pot. Pour in your bottle of wine. Gently heat up but do not boil. Add honey or maple syrup. Then add sachet of spices or cinnamon sticks. Serve warm, preferable with a cinnamon stick as decoration.
