Mulled wine is something I used to love the smell of but hate the taste off however as I've got older I've started to enjoy it a bit more. It's such a lovely thing to make from scratch because it fills the house with beautiful Christmas aroma's :) and can make a nice personal gift.
Ingredients :
-2x 75cl Bottles of red wine I choose Shiraz
( I don't really know what is best )
- 1L Cloudy apple juice
-115g Caster Sugar
- 1 Long cinnamon stick broken in half
-2 star anise
-1tsbp cloves
- A handful frozen black cherries
-1 sachet of mulled wine spices
How to make :
- Pour the wine and apple juice into a big pan
and put on a low heat then add your sugar , cinnamon,star anise ,
cloves,fruit,and the mulled wine spices. Heat gently and stir gently
to dissolve the sugar. Continue to heat for 20 minutes
When the wine is heated sieve and serve into glasses or bottles.
I put the left over cherries in the bottles and put tags and cinnamon
for nice decoration :)
ENJOY!!!!!
P.S I have decided that with it only been 5 days till Santie comes I would blog everyday with some of my preparations hope you enjoy and don't get too
stressed.
