Tip!
You can also spice things up by adding a drop of cognac, calvados or vodka. You can also add some of your preferred sweetener if you wish. There are liquid flavor extracts you can add to the mixture, such as vanilla or cinnamon. Ready-made mulled wine spices are also quite popular if you want to make things even more simple.
