Mulled wine is for Mugs. Mulled cider is the best thing you can crack out this winter (apart from a heafty cheque from your aunty norah); heres the recipie we have run in several of my bars so I know it works.
2 pints of cider (preferably something cloudy – old rosie athough its strong is perfect)
1 Pint of Cloudy organic cider
a dash of flat coke

a pinch of nutmeg
2 Sticks of cinnamon
1 vanilla pod
1 orange cut open and stuffed with cloves and tied with a little twine
½ a pint of wisebier (not essential but makes a huge difference)
2 tablespoons of honey (manuka honey preferably)
Add these ingredients to a pan and cook it to just below boiling and allow it to chill down to below 75oc and add 50ml of grand marnier and leave it to mull for a good 2 hours on a low heat while you go carol singing – return and watch your friends get jealous of your booze combining skills.
