You want to make sure you have the right options to appeal to all your guests, in order to have the most successful holiday gathering!

Spicy Mulled Wine
I always serve this at my annual holiday craft night. It’s a friend favorite and perfect for the season to keep you warmed and in the spirit!
Here’s what you’ll need:
- 4 cups apple cider
- 1 bottle red wine (I prefer pinot noir — and it doesn’t need to be your reserve bottle, something simple will do!)
- 1 orange, zested and juiced
- ¼ honey
- 2 cinnamon sticks
- 4 whole cloves
- 3 star anise
Combine all ingredients into a large saucepan. Heat to boiling, then reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes.
Strain and serve!!
