Mulled wine is my favorite drink at this time of year, as long as it is not over cooked. I also like hot apple cider. Yummy.

I'll share a recipe for mulled wine. You will need:

one bottle of red wine (either a Shiraz or a Merlot)

Aprox same amount of orange juice with no bits. (use more if the wine has a fuller flavour.

2 small oranges

20 - 30 cloves

2 - 3 short cinnimon sticks

between 1/6lb and 1/3lb brown sugar depending on the sweetness of the wine

Start by mixing the wine and the juice on a low heat.
stuff the oranges with the cloves then add to the mixture along with the cinnimon.

stir the mixture occasionally and continue to heat for 10 minuits without letting it get too hot. Add the sugar little by little stiring and tasting untill you think you have the right amount.

Leave to cool a little then give a final stir and serve at just above blood temperature.
