Ingredients

Servings
  • 1.5 liters dry red wine 2 bottles, or 1.5 liquid qt
  • 2 orange sliced
  • 6 cardamom pods
  • 1 tsp allspice (9 berries)
  • 1 tsp cloves whole
  • 4 star anise
  • 3 cinnamon sticks
  • 4 tablespoons demerara sugar or other sweetener of your choice
  • liced orange to garnish

Instructions

  1. Bruise your cardamom pods with the back of your knife. Put all ingredients except of sugar in a pot over medium low heat. Before it starts to boil, remove from heat and add sugar. Let sit for up to 30 minutes, strain and serve. To garnish, put a few orange slices in a mug along with a cinnamon stick.
  2. To keep the mulled wine warm for a longer time put your mulled wine on a really low heat and pour it into glasses as your guests arrive. Enjoy!

Notes

  • You can add rum or brandy in your mulled wine to give it a stronger flavor. Add 20 ml or 2/3 fluid oz per portion before the mulled wine is ready and simmer for 3 more minutes. Another option is to make it non-alcoholic by substituting grape juice to wine.
