Publish on 11.08.2024 by Gaia Gardens

You love mulled wine spices*, but would you like to vary the traditional recipe a little? We've come up with a recipe for mulled red fruit juice, deliciously seasoned with typical winter spices, currants and almonds..

A delicious drink that has nothing to envy the Swedish mulled wines from which it was inspired! To be enjoyed without moderation..

Cooking time: approx. 20 minutes

Preparation time: approx. 10 minutes

Ingredients for 4 people :

2-3 tablespoons raisins
2-3 tablespoons almonds (whole or flaked)
150 ml fruit juice (elderberry, blackcurrant, cherry) for macerating
1 vanilla pod
1 walnut-sized piece fresh ginger
1 organic orange
200 ml orange juice
300 ml elderberry or blackcurrant juice
300 ml grape juice
50 g cane sugar (or 1 tablespoon honey)
1 tablespoon mulled wine spice (or more, to taste)

To make this recipe:

The day before:

Macerate the grapes and almonds in the elderberry juice.

Same day:

Zest the orange finely. Split the vanilla pod and scrape out the seeds. Cut the ginger into thin strips.
Mix the other juices, sugar, orange zest, ginger and spices, then heat without boiling. Stir occasionally to prevent the sugar from sticking.
Cover and simmer over very low heat for 20 minutes. Strain.
Divide the drained grape-almond mixture between large cups, add the hot juice and enjoy with Christmas cookies!

Tip: of course, this recipe also works with red* or white* wine!

*Alcohol abuse is dangerous for your health. Drink in moderation.
