mulled wine
Hot holiday beverage
Mulled wine is wine heated with spices, sugar, and sometimes citrus or brandy.
The drink is associated with winter holidays and cold weather, served warm in mugs at Christmas markets and seasonal gatherings: We stood around the fire drinking mulled wine.
Red wine is traditional, though white versions exist.
