Holiday Favorites | Spicy Mulled Wine

If you’re like me, you love entertaining over the holidays, but deciding on the best food and drinks for the occasion can often be nerve-wracking. 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! Well, the spicy mulled wine recipe below is sure to be a crowd pleaser and is very simple to make!

This is the easiest spicy mulled wine recipe you will ever make. It's one of our holiday favorites.

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!!

What are some of your favorite holiday recipes? Please comment and share!

About Jessica

Jessica Sleepless Mom Welcome sleepless moms! I haven’t had a full nights rest in over 2 years. Why, you ask? Because like you, juggling a toddler and a baby, working, and finding time for myself has left me sleepless, yet full of joy.

The inspiration for my blog came from tirelessly searching online for the answers new moms have, just to find out there is no right answer. My hope and vision is to create a community for moms to comment and share real life stories with one another when Google just isn’t cutting it. Whether you have specific questions or just want to comment and relate, this is your space to ask your fellow moms advice and know you’re not the only one that screws up from time to time.

I have assembled a well-rounded team that’s here to share their struggles and successes with you, as well as offer support in any way possible. This is an interactive site and we are here to cater to your mom needs. Please feel free to contact our team members with new topics you want us to tackle or even simple questions about motherhood. That’s what we are here for….
