I found this recipe in Southern Living, way back in 2003. I can't believe I have had this recipe that long! It has always been a hit, and I have enjoyed sharing it at family gatherings over the years.
2 (750ml) bottles red wine
2 cups apple juice
1 cup sugar
6 tablespoons mulling spice
If you want to make your own check out Mountain Rose Herbs post on mulling spices, or this one from McCormick.
Bring all of the ingredients to boil in a Dutch oven; reduce heat, and simmer 15 minutes. Pour mixture through a wire-mesh strainer into a pitcher, discarding mulling spices.
Serve hot.
For best results use a fruity red wine like Pinot Noir.
Makes 9 cups
This is a great thing to sip by the fire even if you aren't a wine drinker.
Wishing you many slow evenings of sitting by the fire with those that you love this holiday season,
Jill
