Warm Up Your Winter: A Guide to Making Mulled Wine with Our Festive Gift Set

As the festive season approaches, there’s nothing quite like the comfort of mulled wine to bring a festive atmosphere to any gathering. With our Cappuccino Glass Gift Set with a 75cl Bottle of Mulled Wine, your customers can create cosy, memorable moments with ease.



To help your customers make the most of this set, we’ve put together a simple guide on how to prepare mulled wine. Whether for personal use or entertaining, this recipe pairs perfectly with our elegant glassware.


How to Make Mulled Wine


Ingredients You’ll Need:

  • 1 bottle of red wine (750ml)

  • 50g of caster sugar (adjust to taste)

  • 2 oranges (one sliced, one juiced)

  • 1 lemon (sliced)

  • 4 cloves

  • 2 cinnamon sticks

  • 1 star anise

  • A dash of brandy or port (optional, for added warmth)



Step-by-Step Instructions:


  1. Prepare the Base - In a large saucepan, combine the sugar, orange juice and half a cup of red wine. Heat gently until the sugar dissolves, creating a rich, fragrant syrup base.


  2. Add the Flavours - Add the orange slices, lemon slices, cloves, cinnamon sticks and star anise to the saucepan. Allow the spices and fruit to infuse into the syrup over a low heat for 5-10 minutes.


  3. Pour in the Wine - Gradually add the rest of the red wine to the pan, stirring gently. Heat the mixture slowly, being careful not to let it boil (boiling will burn off the alcohol).


  4. Optional Extra - For a little extra festive cheer, stir in a dash of brandy or port just before serving.


  5. Serve in Style - Pour the mulled wine into your Cappuccino Glasses, using a ladle for easy serving. Garnish with a slice of orange or a cinnamon stick for an extra festive touch.
