Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 5 minutes
Total Time 1 hour 10 minutes
Servings 4 Mugs

Ingredients

  • 1 Bottle red wine dry or semi-dry
  • 4 whole Cloves
  • 2 sticks cinnamon
  • 1 Star anise (optional)
  • 1 pod Cardamom (optional)
  • 3 spoons raw sugar or more according to your taste
  • 1 whole Bio orange sliced

Instructions

  • Warm up the wine in a pot on a medium heat. Keep in mind that the wine should NOT cook. Otherwise, the alcohol will evaporate and the wine will lose its quality.
  • Add all the other ingredients. If you want you can use Bio Lemons or Apples.
  • Take the pot off the heat and let it rest for one hour. In this time the wine will absorb the flavour and the scent out of the spices.
  • Warm up the mulled wine to the preferred temperature before serving and filter through a sieve.
