Sheridan’s Winter Mulled Wine
Ingredients
Utensils
wooden spoon
Step 1/5
- 300 g caster sugar
- 4 star anise
- 1½ tsp ground cinnamon
- 2 tsp nutmeg
- 10 Pepper berries
- 16 cloves
- 1 tsp chili flakes
- 2 orange peel
- 2 lemon peel
- 400 ml orange juice with pulp
- wooden spoon
Add all dry ingredients to a non stick pot with both peels and the orange juice.
Step 2/5
Add just enough of the wine to cover the dry ingredients and set to boil, constantly stir
Step 3/5
You want to keep stirring for about five minutes until the mix becomes sticky to the spoon.
Step 4/5
- 2 l full-bodied red wine
Add your wine by pouring over the back of the spoon. I use this method to minimise bubbles and splashing. Lower the temp to a very gentle simmer and leave for ten minutes minimum. It is important NOT to allow the mix at this stage to boil as it rids all the alcohol (unless that’s your aim!)
Step 5/5
Pour in to a suitable glass and enjoy next to the fire
Cheers!
