Ready or not, the holidays are upon us, friends! This season gets so hectic so fast and it’s important to slow down and enjoy time with friends and family. And having a low-key dinner party or get together is my kinda quality time. There’s nothing better than being cozy and warm in your own home with good food and good drinks with your favorite people. And I can’t think of a cozier, easier cocktail to whip up for holiday entertaining than this mulled wine situation.
I partnered with Master of Mixes, America’s #1 cocktail mix brand to create this simple and delicious cocktail perfect for holiday entertaining. The mulled wine only takes about 20 minutes to put together and you can keep it warm on the stove until your guests arrive. It’s full of spicy, cozy flavors and a punch of bright citrus thanks to the Master of Mixes Triple Sec Syrup which is made with pure cane sugar and premium orange oil. Their Cocktail Essentials make it so easy to make premium, from-scratch cocktails at home, which is perfect for holiday entertaining for homebodies like me! I hope you give this simple recipe a try and don’t forget to tag me @all.purpose.flour.child on Instagram if you do! I love seeing your creations. :) . Happy Holidays, friends!
