Ingredients for Mulled Wine
Ingredients

1 bottle red wine
1 or 2 tablespoon honey (this depends on your taste and your wine)

Seasoning 
2 ounces orange liqueur
2 slices fresh ginger root
1 or 1/2 small cinnamon stick
1 star anis
3 or 4 cloves
5 or 7 cardamone seeds
5 or 7 all spice whole
Fresh grated nutmeg to taste

Orange slices or fresh cranberries to garnish

Instructions

Warm wine and honey over medium heat to dissolve honey completely.
You can use any other sugar source that you have on hand or that you prefer.
Do not boil. Reduce heat as needed.
Add all seasoning ingredients and leave covered on medium low or low heat for 20 to 40 minutes.
Again do not boil - boiling makes the taste bitter.
Strain and serve with garnish of your choice.
