Homemade mulled wine is easy to make in the slow cooker, infused with citrus, honey, spices, and a splash of bourbon. Perfect for holiday entertaining!
Wine Choices: Mulled wine is often best to make with affordable, full-bodied red wine as the spices will significantly alter the wine's original flavor. You can try it with a Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, or Zinfandel.
Scale: Adjust the recipe easily for more servings, but avoid overfilling the slow cooker.
Hot Liquid Mugs: Serve in mugs or glasses that can handle the heat to avoid cracking.
Be sparing with spices; their flavors intensify with the heat, so a little is plenty.
Use the slow cooker for gentle heating to avoid turning the wine syrupy.
Utilize the “keep warm” setting to maintain temperature, and check occasionally to prevent overheating.
