POV
It’s winter, you’re watching trash TV and you’re wrapped up in your fave blanket. What’s missing? That’s right… a sweet and spicy Chai Mulled Wine. But you’re probably thinking, chai… plus wine!? What’s going on here? Well, not all wines are made the same, but a deep Merlot with a bit of spice is *chef’s kiss*. Here’s how to make it.
    • 1 x 750mL bottle of merlot
    • 30mL brandy
    • 1 lemon, sliced and de-seeded
    • 1 apple, sliced and de-seeded
    • Juice of 1 orange
    • 1/3 cup honey
    • 1 cinnamon stick
    • 30g chai (if you're going by tea bags, about 10) 
    • Star anise to garnish 
    • 1
      Bust out your best Remy from Ratatouille impression and get all your liquids, fruit, honey and cinnamon into a saucepan.
    • 2
      Set that lil guy to medium and stir to dissolve the honey - just don’t let it boil.

      Hot tip: Boiling will lower the amount of alcohol and leave you with a wine flavoured mocky-t. (Not the vibe we’re going for, but handy if you're doing a dry month). 
    • 3
      Once steaming, get that pan off the heat and chuck in the chai to steep. Let all the flavours mingle. 
    • 4
      After about 10 mins, or longer (depending on how intense you want it/impatient you are), you’re ready to get that drink into a mug and garnish.
Best paired with
Below Deck, Survivor, MAFS or The Kardashians.
