? Chestnuts roasting on an open fire, mulled wine bubbling on the stove. ?
If you’re all about a homemade Christmas, whipping up a mulled spice blend is a breeze. Traditional mulled wine requires cinnamon, star anise, cloves and nutmeg, but if you're feeling adventurous, we like this citrusy Mulled Wine Recipe by Food Network.
The cheapest mulled wine spices are just the Morrisons Mulled Wine Spices for just 99p. But as they are currently sold out, why not pay a penny extra for Sainsbury's Mulling Spices at £1.00. Bear in mind that you’ll need to supply a bottle of red to brew with your spices which will jack your spending up.
