White Cranberry Mulled Wine

White Cranberry Mulled Wine is the perfect drink for chilly weather! This easy cocktail recipe is done in just 20 minutes.

As we approach the holidays, I'm always looking for new ways to make mulled wine. It's such a great drink and I love changing it up every time I make it.

This recipe was developed for Heinen's grocery store.

Recipe Inspiration

Mulled wine is a go-to holiday favorite, and it's usually made with red wine. I wanted to create a version with white wine and white cranberry juice for a different look and flavor to the classic winter drink.

The white wine and white cranberry juice is just delicious for mulled wine. I love the added flavors with cranberries, sliced oranges, cinnamon, and rosemary for the ultimate winter adult beverage.

I love making this when it's really cold outside, preferably with lots of Christmas movies.

White Cranberry Mulled Wine Ingredients

Here are the ingredients you'll need for this recipe:

• 2 cups white cranberry juice
• Bottle Pinot Grigio
• 1 cup fresh cranberries, plus more for serving

• 2 rosemary sprigs, plus more for serving

Directions

First, combine cranberry juice, white wine, cranberries, orange slices, cinnamon sticks, and rosemary sprigs in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat.

Simmer over low heat for 20 minutes until fully warmed. Make sure that the wine does not come to a boil!

Recipe Equipment

Here is some equipment you will need for this recipe. You can find all of these products on Amazon.

Saucepan - I love this saucepan. It comes with a lid and is versatile for so many different recipes in the kitchen! Every home cook needs a good handy saucepan in their kitchen.

White Cranberry Juice - I had a hard time finding White Cranberry Juice at first - if you do too, you can just order some on Amazon! Check out a three pack here.

Festive Mug - Mulled wine is even more delicious in a festive glass! I love this adorable snowman mug. It's great for serving this recipe to (21+) friends and family.

Recipe Substitutions and Variations

Here are a different substitution options for this recipe:

Cranberry Juice - If you can't find white cranberry juice, you can opt for regular cranberry juice! You can also use sugar free cranberry juice in this recipe if you prefer.

White Wine - This recipe calls for Pinot Grigio, but any white wine that you like will be great in this recipe. If you only drink a certain type of white wine, you can definitely use it! I will just note that the sweeter the wine you choose, the sweeter the mulled wine will be. So watch out if you want to use a wine like moscato!
