Nectar of the Vine - Warm Mulling Spice Wine Cocktail Mix
This warm & savory mix has a delightful blend of clove & nutmeg spices, and slight hints of cinnamon. It is all-natural and contains no artificial flavoring or dyes. Served warm in the crockpot, it is best enjoyed in the fall & winter months, but it's available all year long & can be prepared as a frozen drink as well. Mix with dry red wine (merlot) for a delicious mulled wine cocktail. You can even use spiced rum, cinnamon whiskey, or spiced apple cider instead of wine. Makes 8 - 10 servings.
