Mulled Wine Kit - What Is It and What Is In It
02/19/09
Mulled wine is a warm wine that is flavored with spices, much like hot apple cider. The spices used in the wine are usually some variation of
- sugar
- star anise
- cinnamon
- cloves
The spices are usually not served with the wine but allowed to seep in the hot wine, much like an herbal tea.
A red wine is usually used with this kind of recipe, and Shiraz are usually the best type of red wine and works well with making it into a mulled wine.
Mulled wines can be purchased pre made, or made at home and are typically consumed during the holiday season. It also makes a great gift for the wine lover as well.
There are a number of places online where you can purchase mulled wine kits. The list will follow in this post at a later time.
