Mulled Wine

By Malgorzata Weglarz

But all jokes aside, mulled wine is probably one of the best ways to get you into holiday cheer(s).

All the spices: cinnamon, ginger, cloves combine all together to make you want to wear a cozy sweater, warm up under a blanket and just look at your christmas tree.

But let’s say you lived under a rock, and you have no idea how to make the standard winter drink. Don’t worry, Vremi got you.
