Equipment
- slow cooker
Ingredients
- 1 bottle red wine
- 1 orange whole or quartered
- 10 whole cloves
- 2 sticks ground cinnamon
- 1 star anise
- ¼ tsp ground nutmeg
- 2 tbsp granulated sweetener, of choice optional, and to taste
- 60 ml brandy
Instructions
- Pour 1 bottle of red wine into the slow cooker.
- Take the whole orange and push 10 cloves (or more) into the skin. Place the orange in the slow cooker with the cinnamon sticks, star anise, nutmeg, and brandy.
- Stir through and add sweetener to taste (optional). Only add a small amount at a time. You can always add more if required, but you don't want to risk making it too sweet, or if using stevia, too bitter. No one wants a wasted bottle of wine.
- Turn your slow cooker on to LOW and warm through for 1 hour, stirring occasionally so all the spices infuse.
- Turn the slow cooker onto the WARM setting, and serve into glasses, or allow guests to serve themselves.
- As the evening progresses, you may top up the low-carb mulled wine with extra bottle of red wine. The flavours will still infuse for the orange, cinnamon, and star anise. You may just require some additional sweetener.
