Categories     Punch Beverage

Time 1h5m

Yield 7 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 quart pomegranate juice
1 (750 ml) bottle fruity red wine, such as Zinfandel
2 cinnamon sticks, 2 1/2 in long apiece
6 cardamom pods
1/4 cup honey

Steps:

  • Stir together all ingredients in a 4 to 6 quart slow cooker; cover.
  • Cook until very hot, about 1 hour on High or 2 hours on Low; once hot keep warm on low heat up to 4 hours.
  • A serving is 1 cup.

Tips:

  • Choose the right wine. A good mulled wine starts with a good red wine. Look for a wine that is fruity and has a medium body. Avoid wines that are too tannic or acidic.
  • Use fresh spices. Fresh spices will give your mulled wine the best flavor. Whole spices are ideal, but you can also use ground spices if that's all you have. Just be sure to use a little less ground spice than you would whole spice.
  • Don't boil the wine. Boiling the wine will make it taste harsh and bitter. Instead, heat the wine slowly over low heat until it just barely simmers.
  • Let the wine mull for at least 30 minutes. This will give the spices time to infuse the wine with their flavor.
  • Serve the wine hot. Mulled wine is best served hot, but you can also serve it cold or at room temperature.

Conclusion:

Mulled wine is a delicious and festive drink that is perfect for enjoying during the holiday season. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. So next time you are looking for a warm and comforting drink, give mulled wine a try. You won't be disappointed!
