Transcript of Best Slow Cooker Recipes for Mulled Wine
What is MulledWine?
Mulled wine is red wine mixed with
mulling spices (and other, various
ingredients), and served hot or warm.
Background
Mulled wine has European roots. 2nd
century Romans used the beverage
stay warm and defend their bodies
against cold weather.
Contemporary Interest
Mulled wine is not as popular in
America, but a younger, hipper
crowd's embrace of the beverage is
making it more widely known in the
states as the something to enjoy in
cocktail bars or during the holidays.
Making it at Home
The beverage is rather simple to
make at home, which is part of why
it's becoming more common. In this
presentation, I've included some of
my favorite recipes from online.
