This mulled wine recipe pairs perfectly with this delicious cucumber and dill yoghurt dip.
Ingredients
Method
1.First make a little syrup to flavour the pot of wine; Add sugar and 2 cups of wine to a small pot, add all the spices and bring to simmering point.
2.Simmer the syrup for about 20 minutes until the syrup has reduced by a quarter or until it is a thicker texture.
3.Slice the citrus into even slices – try and keep them whole.
4.Pour the remaining wine into a larger pot, add the sliced citrus, and reduced syrup with spices.
5.Bring the pot slowly to heat, just below simmering point. Turn off and let it sit for 5 minutes before serving into mugs or glasses.
6.This will serve about 6 standard cups.
You can use any spices you have on hand. E.g. ½ tsp ground nutmeg, a few fresh bay leaves, or a vanilla bean. Experiment with whatever may have.
