Warm & Cozy Mulled Wine !
Ingredients:
1 bottle Full-bodied red wine, like Italian Red, Southern French, New World Merlot, Red Zinfandel, Shiraz
¼ cup Member's Mark™ Organic 100% Pure Maple Syrup
¼-½ cup Bourbon or brandy
1 Orange, sliced (plus more for garnish)
2 Spice Islands® Saigon Cinnamon Sticks
3 whole Star anise pods, plus more for garnish
4 whole Cloves
Instructions:
Add all ingredients to a medium sized pot and stir together.
Heat until the wine almost reaches a simmer over medium-high heat. (Avoid letting it bubble! This will cause the alcohol in the wine to evaporate.)
Reduce heat to low, cover completely, and let the wine simmer for at least 15 minutes or up to 3 hours.
Remove and discard the orange slices, cloves, cinnamon sticks, and star anise.
Serve in a mug garnished with additional orange slices, cinnamon sticks, and star anise pods, as desired.
