Inspired by the movie Tim Burton’s The Night Before Christmas and many cold days in London over Christmas, visiting all of the Christmas markets with a takeaway coffee cup full of hot mulled wine to warm the soul.
Makes 2 servings with a 375ml bottle of wine
Ingredients
375ml red wine
1/2 orange, sliced
1 star anise
1/2 cinnamon stick
1tbs honey
60ml Canadian Club or any Rum
1/2 Christmas candy cane [optional]
Method
Place all of the ingredients into a pot, minus the honey.
Pop this on the stove over a low heat and bring this up to a simmer – we don’t want to boil our wine!
Allow to simmer for 20-30min
Taste your wine [being careful as it will be hot] and sweeten to taste with the honey
Strain into a glass or coffee cup and enjoy!
