Traditional Holiday Mulled Wine (SCD)

 

With the cold weather upon us here in Toronto, I thought it would be the perfect time to introduce a holiday/winter classic, mulled wine. This recipe comes from my own adaptation from one of Jamie Oliver’s recipe. Traditional recipes include far more sugar than anyone following an SCD or sugar-free diet can process. To maintain the sweetness I have substituted unpasteurized honey for the sugar. The key part to this recipe is to properly make the syrup base which will flavour the entire batch. I recommend 2-3 bottles of Cabernet Sauvignon for this but feel free to substitute any wine you find easiest on your body.  I have already made this twice this holiday and plan to make it a few more times before Canada melts in march.

Enjoy!
