Mulled wine has been prepared since the time of the ancient Greeks, when the combination of mulled wine, honey, cinnamon and cardamom was considered healing. Today we take pleasure in it during the winter months along with sausages, gingerbread cookies or just citruses or dried fruits. Cheers!

1 l (33.8 fl oz) dry red wine (frankovka)
