Mondavi Mulled Red Wine
Serves 4 to 5
INGREDIENTS
1 bottle CK Mondavi Cabernet Sauvignon
5 whole cloves
3 star anise, plus more to garnish
3 Vietnamese cinnamon sticks, plus more to garnish
2 tablespoons honey (Mondavi uses Wild Mountain brand)
2 blood oranges, divided use
DIRECTIONS
In a medium saucepan set over medium heat, combine the wine, spices and honey.
Slice 1 blood orange into thin wheels and place in saucepan. Slice the second blood orange into wheels and set aside.
Bring the saucepan contents to a simmer. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer gently for 10 minutes.
Ladle into serving cups with caution, as contents are hot (and delicious). Garnish each with a blood orange wheel, cinnamon stick and a star anise, and serve immediately.
