Stay warm with this classic mulled wine recipe! An easy recipe for the chilly winter season.
With the cold weather being here to stay, I’m looking for all of the cozy meals and drinks that I can get my hands on. While I do tend to favour a spiked hot chocolate, like this Peppermint White Hot Chocolate recipe, a thought a classic mulled wine would be perfect to embrace the holiday season.
This mulled wine recipe is in collaboration with Magnetic Hill Winery and features their Bay of Fundy Blue wine. The Bay of Fundy Blue is a bold blueberry wine and is sweet enough that it doesn’t require to add sugar to the recipe (although I did add a dash of maple syrup – we’re Canadian, it’s our duty to throw maple syrup onto everything, isn’t it?).

- 2 cinnamon sticks, extras for garnish (optional)
- 2 star of anise, extras for garnish (optional)

Here’s what you’ll do:
