Mulled Wine Baby!!!

With all your Christmas cards posted ,turkeys  and geese ordered,  the tree trimmed to perfection and the advent calendar  promising a Christmas  that’s  fast approaching ,lets  get our hands dirty and sprits’ elated!!Hurrah  its MulledWine time!!!!

 Here’s  my recipe, I’ve tweaked  it a bit J

1 bottleRed Wine

200gms Icing Sugar

1 Clementine

1Lemon

4-5 Cloves

 1 Cinnamon Stick

2 Bay Leaves

1 Chilli

 Mint leaves

4-5 Staranise

Melt the sugar in a large pan, add the spices and the zest of the Clementine and lime. Add a couple of slices of the Clementine  for  extra flavour. I added  few slices of chilli and  fresh mint leaves .Once the mix simmers add the wine until its warm.

PS: Now if you want to give this as a cocktail ,i tried making staranise and mint ice cubes(A winner for sure at you party!!!),you can maybe add a bit of soda as well to give it a fizz.

PSS: Well you can maybe try making Glogg this time(the Swedish twin of mulledWine),the recipe is pretty much the same, with extra raisins, fig and almonds.

CheersJ
