Pomegranate Mulled Wine
Beverages • European
Description
You can make mulled wine with red grape juice, but it's unlikely you'll find a box of commercial juice without sugar. The amount of sugar is excessive, and the benefits of the product are reduced to zero. Therefore, I prefer to use natural, freshly squeezed pomegranate juice.
Ingredients
- Pomegranate juice 0 qt
- Water 10 fl oz
- Oranges 1 piece
- Cinnamon sticks 2 pieces
- Cloves 10 pieces
- Black peppercorns 6 pieces

Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
Pour the pomegranate juice and water into a pot and place it over high heat.
Step 2
Zest the orange and squeeze the juice. You can use the whole peel, but it may add excessive bitterness to the drink.
Step 3
Add all the ingredients to the pot.
Step 4
As soon as the liquid comes to a boil, remove from heat, cover with a lid, and let it steep for 30–60 minutes. Afterward, strain and reheat if necessary.
