Mulled wine, the ultimate Christmas drink. Hot, warming, spiced and deep in flavour, my festive mulled wine is far better than the stuff you buy in the supermarket. It can pretty much be made from what you may have in your spice cupboard and is always a real winner. It can be made in huge batches for your Christmas party!
