Mulled Wine Porto Quickie

Posted by Chris on January 22, 2008

This sounds really delicious! You have to try it! I happen to be in Denver right now and was inspired to Google “mulled wine Colorado” and came across this mulled wine recipe from Sprig.

If you cannot find the Port mentioned in this recipe, get another one and give it a shot.

Port-Infused Mulled Wine

Ingredients:
2 bottles of inexpensive dry red wine
1 cup (8 oz.) Fonseca organic Porto
4 tablespoons organic honey
3 organic tangerines
Small handful of cloves
Large pinch of nutmeg, freshly ground
4 sticks cinnamon
Zest of 1 lemon
1/2 cup raisins (optional)

Utensils:
Large pot
Ladle
Zester or grater

1. Add red wine, porto and honey to pot and bring to low simmer. Stick cloves into tangerines like a pin cushion and add to the pot along with nutmeg, cinnamon, and half the lemon zest and raisins. Simmer for 20 minutes, or until mulled wine becomes powerfully aromatic.

2. To serve, ladle into mugs and garnish with raisins, a pinch of lemon zest, and a cinnamon stick.

Enjoy!
