Instructions
Pour the full bottle of wine into a large saucepan.
Add the orange juice and the pomegranate juice.
Now add your spices, honey and sugar.
Give everything a stir.
Place a lid on the pan and slowly bring to the boil over a medium heat.
Allow to simmer for 3-4 minutes and then remove from the heat.
Leave the lid on the pan and allow the mulled wine to stand for around 5 minutes to allow all your flavours to infuse.
Now take a cup, place a sieve over it, and ladle your mulled wine into the cup.
Don't forget to serve some to your friends, too!
Notes
The brandy / rum is optional but adds extra punch and spicy flavour to your mulled wine. Of course, measurements are flexible so you can add more or less, depending on your preferences.
If you don't have a cupboard filled with spices, you can use a level teaspoon of allspice instead of the cinnamon and cloves.
