This mulled wine recipe from my book is such a great holiday treat! It's organic and sulfate-free.

Ingredients

  • 1 bottle sulfate-free, organic red wine
  • 1 cup Madeira (optional)
  • 1 cup freshly squeezed orange juice (optional - makes it great though)
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup - you can use less and it
  • 5 whole white cardamom pods, cracked (optional)
  • 2 whole cloves
  • 1 4" cinnamon stick
  • 2 slices fresh or dried orange with peel (optional)

Directions

  1. Combine all the ingredients in a large stainless steel saucepan, and heat slowly over low heat without boiling
  2. Strain, and serve immediately
  3. For a stronger flavor, turn off the heat, cover, and let the spices steep for several hours or overnight.
  4. Strain and reheat gently.
