Ingredients

1 Bottle Red Wine 750 Milileters
1 ½ Cups Apple Juice
½ Cup Brandy
½ Cup Triple Sec
½ Cup White Granulated Sugar
1 Cinnamon Stick
6 Whole Cloves
6 Whole Allspice Berries
1 Small Orange

Garnish:

6 Cinnamon Sticks

Instructions

Combine. In an 8-cup saucepan, combine the red wine, apple juice, brandy, triple sec, sugar, cinnamon stick, whole cloves, and whole allspice.
1 Bottle Red Wine, 1 ½ Cups Apple Juice, ½ Cup Brandy, ½ Cup Triple Sec, ½ Cup White Granulated Sugar, 1 Cinnamon Stick, 6 Whole Cloves, 6 Whole Allspice Berries
Add Peel. Cut the orange in half. Remove the outermost part of the peel from one-half of the orange and add it to the wine mixture.
1 Small Orange
Simmer. Heat the wine over medium-low heat until the mixture barely comes to a simmer. Immediately, reduce heat to low heat and let the mulled wine heat for at least 20 minutes, but no more than 30 minutes.
As the mulled wine heats, slice the other half of the orange and cut each slice into quarters. Set these quarter-slices aside for garnishing.
Serve and Enjoy. Ladle the mulled wine into mugs and garnish each mug with a fresh quarter-slice of orange and a cinnamon stick. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

My Top Tips

♡ Use Cheesecloth - The whole cloves and the whole allspice can be placed into a small cheesecloth bag and then added to the mulled wine as it simmers. This makes it easier to remove these spices before ladling the mulled red wine into the mugs.

♡ Make Ahead - You can make this mulled wine up to 2 hours ahead of serving. Just cover the pan and let it stand at room temperature. When you are ready to serve it, slowly reheat it.
