Mulled white wine makes a delicious Christmas cocktail or party drink to serve up during the cooler months. Friends and family will love that you've done something a little bit different and it gives those who don't love red wine a nice change from the classic recipe!
You can choose how you'd best like to serve up your mulled white wine but it looks great in a punch bowl with some pretty glasses and a ladle so that guests can help themselves. If you prefer you could also try serving up your party drinks in glass mugs or even tin cups for rustic charm.
One of the great things about this mulled white wine recipe is that you can easily use a slightly cheaper wine and friends won't notice the difference. The sugar and flavourings give a sweet and smooth edge to any wine and it'll taste just as good - plus once everyone' had a couple there'll be no wine experts! Ready to get started? Follow our simple recipe for mulled white wine below and whip some up in just two steps.
