Mulled wine extract
This recipe for mulled wine extract is inspired by a similar recipe I received from an old friend. I have chosen to make my extract light, as it can then be used with white wine, red wine or with apple juice. You can even make the mulled wine without alcohol, and then alcoholic drinks must be replaced with, for example apple juice, and this is fine too.
I use cognac and white port wine instead of rum and red port. The liquor can be replaced, but white rum do not taste like much, so … If you use red port wine, and want a pink mulled wine with white wine, it is also ok, but maybe a little weird 😉
Ingredients
1 cup of water
200 gr of palm sugar
1 pinch salt
1 teaspoon whole cloves
4 cinnamon sticks
1 teaspoon whole allspice
3 cardamom pods
3 star anis
1 eco-orange
1 eco-lemon
1 eco-clementine (can be left out)
1 ½ cup white port wine
1 cup of brandy
How to make it
What a glorious mixture;-) It smells wonderful..
Cook spices, sugar and salt slowly until it is a syrupy mass. Give it the time it takes for the spices to penetrate – meanwhile enjoy how good it smells. It may take half an hour or more. Turn off the heat and add the citrus fruits. Let it all cool down to room temperature and then add portwine and brandy. Pour your mixture on a jar and leave it for some days.
Palm sugar – raw!
You can make the mulled wine by mixing ¼ extract with ¾ wine, almond splits and raisins that have been sucked in a little bit of brandy.
Kunne det tænkes at der også er Stjerneanis i opskriften? Ud fra billederne kunne det se sådan ud. En tre stykker?
Forestiller mig at de skal i samtidig med de andre krydderier, det er i hvert fald det jeg prøver og stjerneanis til jul det høre sig jo næsten til. 🙂
Tak Georg
Jo – der er 3 stjerneanis i opskriften (den er bare smuttet i den danske version og er sat ind nu). Jeg vil tro at lakridsrod også vil passe godt i denne opskrift – den har jeg så ikke taget med denne gang.. MVH Frank Bach
Er palmesukker det samme som kokospalmesukker? Eller kan man bruge det i stedet for?
Du kan bruge den slags sukker du lige har lyst til – her er det smagen det kommer an
på. Og j a- det burde være det samme.
