Non-Alcoholic Spiced Mulled Wine Recipe

As winter grips most of the country, it’s reminded us that every so often, there’s nothing better than a nice, warm drink.

But the idea of a warm beer or a warm cocktail doesn’t sound all that appealing, does it? Thankfully, this is where wine can really shine. Spiced mulled wine, to be more specific. Dating all the way to the second century Romans, the history of mulled wine is about as storied as wine itself. It seems that it didn’t take very long for wine enthusiasts to realize that when the temperatures drop outside, adding a little spice and heat to red wine turns it into the absolute perfect warm winter cocktail.

Traditionally, most mulled wines rely on a mix of a rich red and brandy as the base. For this non-alcoholic version, we drop the brandy and swap the traditional red for YOURS Non-Alcoholic California Red Blend – which already has an excellent blend of warm spice and heat – making it the perfect base for our non-alcoholic mulled wine. Together with the cinnamon, dark brown sugar, cloves, and cardamom, the YOURS Non-Alcoholic Red Blend comes alive with flavor, creating a complex beverage that you’d never know was non-alcoholic. Served warm with a bright orange wheel, this non-alcoholic spiced mulled wine recipe is the absolute perfect partner for when the snow and ice pile up outside your door, and you want nothing more than to curl up in front of the fireplace.

So, are you ready for something rich and warm to chase away the cold this winter? Look no further than our Non-Alcoholic Spiced Mulled Wine Recipe:
