    Madeira Mulled Wine.

    Woke up to a beautiful covering of snow this morning! Even though most of it had melted by the afternoon, it put us in a festive mood. So, after all the ‘work’ was done I put on a pot of Madeira Mulled Wine.

    Ingredients
    • 1 ½ bottles of red wine (I used a Cab/Shiraz blend * chef’s tip – drink the other half while you wait for the house to smell amazing! )
    • 1 ½ cups Madeira wine
    • 1 cup apple juice (I used pure pressed)
    • ½ cup maple syrup (Canadian Amber of course)
    • 1 orange, sliced with the skin on
    • 4 cinnamon sticks, plus extra for garnish
    • 1 teaspoon black peppercorns
    • 1 teaspoon whole cloves
    • 6 whole star anise
    • Garnishes: orange slices, cinnamon sticks, star anise, cranberries, rosemary sprigs
    Preparation

    Add all the ingredients to a large pot over medium-high heat. When steam begins to rise from the pot, reduce the heat to low and simmer for 30 – 45 minutes for the spices to infuse the wine.

    Strain the mulled wine into mugs or thick-walled wine glasses and top with any or all of the garnishes.

    Served with quality cheeses and a couple of our favourite charcuterie items.

      This was my first time making mulled wine and @zimmysnook’s recipe did not disappoint! Perfect balance of ever so slightly sweet with warm spices and the fortified Madeira wine added a wonderful depth of flavor. This recipe will be on repeat over the winter months!
