Non Alcoholic Mulled Wine
When the weather starts to chill, I crave warm spices and hot drinks like this Non-Alcoholic Mulled Wine. This mocktail mulls together all my favorite flavors of the holidays: orange, cinnamon, clove, cardamom, anise, and pulls them together with non-alcoholic red wine. It smells just as amazing as it tastes.
