Even in my large metropolitan area, it was tricky finding the kirsch, so plan ahead. I splashed in some vanilla extract since the vanilla bean I thought I had disappeared and added half a cinnamon stick to the spices in the cheesecloth instead of sticking it in the glass. Next time I'm using 1/2 cup of sugar tops. Super delicious, although a bit on the sweet side. Agree with cook below to use extract - cheaper and the vanilla bean was not noticeable. We luckily had kirsch! Which by the way is essential.don't do without it. This recipe is super easy to make! But the better reason to make it is that it is absolutely delicious. Looking for a cooler holiday drink recipe that still incorporates a bottle of wine? Consider this pomegranate-based Thanksgiving sangria, an apple-tinged white wine and bourbon drink, or a gingery red wine spritzer. Just put out a ladle and you’re good to go! You could even make it in a slow cooker to keep it warm throughout a party. Simmer on the stovetop over low heat so the flavors can meld, then serve the spiced wine warm with fragrant garnishes like cinnamon sticks and orange slices. These are simmered with warm spices like cinnamon, cloves, allspice, or whole star anise (essentially the same “mulling spices” you’d use for mulled apple cider), some citrus, and a sweetener such as white or brown sugar or maple syrup. The base is red wine-ideally a full-bodied, fruity varietal like Grenache, Merlot, or Zinfandel-fortified with a higher-proof spirit, usually brandy. The key to the best mulled wine recipe is in the balance of seasonal flavors. It’s just as perfect for holiday parties or snowy evenings as it would be at a European Christmas market.
It takes inspiration from the classic German iteration, glühwein, with the addition of kirsch (cherry brandy).
#Best wine for mulled wine full
This recipe makes a traditional version of the drink, full of fragrant whole spices and aromatic lemon and orange peels. There is perhaps no better way to warm up throughout the holiday season than with a steaming cup of mulled wine.
