Product recommendation

The flavor of the mulled wine deteriorates if it is simmered for longer than 1 hour. It is best served immediately after mulling but will keep fairly hot off heat, covered, for about 30 minutes.

Preparation steps

Toast cinnamon sticks, cloves, peppercorns, and allspice in medium heavy-bottomed nonreactive saucepan over medium-high heat until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add wine, orange zest, and 1/2 cup sugar; cover partially and bring to simmer, stirring occasionally to dissolve sugar. Reduce heat to low and simmer 1 hour until wine is infused; do not boil.

Strain wine through fine-mesh strainer; return wine to saucepan and discard spices and orange zest. Stir 2 tablespoons brandy into wine; taste and add up to 2 tablespoons more sugar and 2 tablespoons more brandy, if desired. Ladle wine into small mugs or glasses; serve immediately. Garnish with fruit, cinnamon sticks and spices (optional).

The Fastest Way To Slice A Bell Pepper

DIY Mulled Wine

Mulled wine is the most popular hot drink at German and Austrian Christmas markets. It is generally a winter-holiday drink, which a lot of people know as an “after-ski” drink. Around 40 million liters are drank every year during the season. Unfortunately, often cheaper wine is used, leading to the infamous hangover the next morning. EAT SMARTER has come up with a recipe so that you can try this European winter tradition at home without the dreaded headache the following day.

Homemade Dressing Formula

While store-bought dressing makes getting a healthy dinner on the table easier some nights, they are not always healthy for us. With hidden sugar and additives to keep them shelf stable, some store-bought dressing is best left in the store. But the good news is that it is very simple (and quick) to make dressing at home using our simple formula.

Homemade Face Masks For All Skin Types

Face masks from the store are often expensive and full of preservatives allowing them to last a long time. A great natural and inexpensive alternative: make face masks yourself. It’s easy! EAT SMARTER will show you the best instructions and will tell you what to watch out for.
