Mulled White Wine

(from desert.rose32’s recipe box)

Categories: Beverages

Ingredients

  • 1 bottle dry white wine, like chardonnay
  • 1 1/2 cups apple cider
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 1/3 cup whole cranberries
  • 1 orange, sliced
  • 1 apple, sliced
  • 4 cinnamon sticks
  • 1 vanilla bean, split in half
  • 1 tablespoon whole cardamom pods
  • 1 teaspoon whole cloves
  • 1 teaspoon-size knob of ginger
  • extra for serving: cinnamon sticks, orange wedges, cranberries, star anise

Directions

  1. Combine all ingredients together in a saucepan and heat over medium-low heat. If it’s easier, you can keep the cloves, cardamom and star anise in a piece of cheesecloth, otherwise you can fish them out with a slotted spoon after warming. Cook for 10 to 15 minutes, until slightly simmering and hot. At this point I like to taste it and see if I want more sweetness or spice. Serve immediately in glasses filled with cinnamon sticks and orange slices.
