Mobile Mulled wine...

Which shop bought Mulled wine do you prefer?

Or don't you like Mulled wine at all?

Smells lovely - tastes horrid. But then I don't like red wine sadly.
It does smell sooo delicious though when I've made it with lots of lovely ingredients in the past on the hob for family get togethers.

As soon as I smell it, it's like Christmas in a bottle 😉

Smells amazing but not keen on drinking it. I've bought the M&s one for ppl before, sorry not actually tried it.

I love the smell. I always think it’s a bit disappointing taste wise. I’m always expecting a taste to match and it’s quite weedy in comparison!
I might make it my mission to find the perfect recipe by Xmas.
This might make for a fun lockdown 😉

I'd recommend the Lidl one, it's got a lovely clove flavour with Christmasy spices 😋
I add extra brandy to it 😉

Thank you. I’m popping to Lidl for a brown sugar haul tomorrow so will grab a bottle then. I’ll follow your advice on the brandy 😉

Personally I think all shop bought mulled wines taste the same so I’d just go for the cheapest one! Love mulled wine, makes me feel really christmassy.
