Laura's Holiday Mulled Wine Recipe

I am a huge fan of spiced wine, in fact making it is one of the things I look forward to the most during the holidays. I take it to just about every holiday gathering I attend so I figured I'd pass the recipe along to you.

Things you'll need:

WINE! (I usually buy two big bottles of Cab Sav but you can also use Gluhwein which is meant to be served hot).

Brandy (this is optional)

2 oranges

Whole cinnamon sticks

Whole cloves

Star anise

1/2 cup sugar (you can also use apple cider as a sweetener)

Pour the wine into a crockpot and set to 'High'

Add the brandy

Add 4 cinnamon sticks

Add 6 star anise

Slice oranges and insert cloves (6-8 per orange slice)

Place the orange slices in the crockpot

Squeeze in the remaining orange juice.

Let it simmer for a couple hours and serve with a ladle!
