Mulled wine is a popular drink with a rich, harmonious taste and healing properties. For the first time, "blazing wine" was prepared by the ancient Romans - since then, mulled wine recipes have been supplemented and improved. To fully experience the amazing qualities of this drink, it must be drunk correctly.
Instructions
Step 1
The serving of "blazing wine" is a kind of ritual that gives a special touch to the atmosphere of a party or meeting. Mulled wine is poured into tall glasses or mugs hot and drunk, gradually savoring its taste. Cold mulled wine is never reheated as it will turn into regular wine. As a snack for mulled wine, unsweetened fruits, pies or dry biscuits are most often served. Since "blazing wine" is a warming drink, it is recommended to drink it in the fresh autumn or winter air, combining mulled wine with grilled sausages or kebabs.
Step 2
If cardamom has been added to the drink, it is best to drink it with ham, lamb or minced goose, while mulled wine with cloves goes well with game. Regardless of the dishes served with mulled wine, this alcoholic drink should not be overused. So, one or two mugs of mulled wine will be enough to warm, raise the mood and treat the onset of a cold. If this dosage is exceeded, you can wake up in the morning with a hangover, headache and feeling tired.
Step 3
Drinking mulled wine has its own etiquette, which involves using either glasses with a handle at the base or massive ceramic mugs for the drink. The second option is used most often, as it allows you to keep the mulled wine hot longer. Also, "flaming wine" is never drunk through cocktail tubes and does not decorate glasses with umbrellas - but decor in the form of pieces of fruit, cinnamon sticks, star anise stars and other spices is only welcome.
Step 4
Mulled wine poured into thick glass cups must be sprinkled with ground nutmeg and drink the drink in small sips, inhaling in front of each of them the unique aroma of wine, essential oils and spices. They need to be enjoyed slowly, slowly, so that mulled wine has a beneficial effect on the digestive system and helps the stomach easily digest heavy meat food, which is usually served with such a popular and healthy “blazing wine”.
