Calories 174kcal

Ingredients

  • 1 Bottle Red Wine full bodied wine such as Cabernet or Merlot
  • 1/4 - 1/2 Cup Swerve or Lakanto (see sweetener notes below) granular (depends on how sweet you’d like it)
  • 1 Orange sliced into rounds
  • 6 Whole Cloves
  • 3 Star Anise
  • 3 Cinnamon Sticks

Instructions

  • Place all ingredients into pot. Bring to a gentle simmer, and cook simmering for 20 minutes. Be very careful not to boil the mulled wine!
  • Ladle wine into individual mugs and garnish with orange peel and cinnamon sticks. Cheers!

Notes

  • Lakanto, Swerve, or Erythritol. I stick to Lakanto and Swerve which are a 1:1 swap with traditional sugar. If using a different brand of Erythritol, keep in mind it's 70% as sweet as sugar, so you may need to add more to taste
  • Traditionally, brandy is added to mulled wine -- since it's a liquor, I decided not to use it.
  • To save some carbs, try using orange extract instead of oranges.
