Mulled Riesling Nugget Markets signature recipes

This warm and inviting drink makes a perfect winter punch. If selecting your own mulled spices instead of a mix, try using cinnamon sticks, whole cloves, citrus peel, allspice berries, star anise or your favorite seasonal flavors.

Ingredients

Cranberry Syrup:

  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup fresh cranberries
  • Zest of ½ orange

Cocktails:

  • 1 bottle dry Riesling
  • 2 ounces Laird's Straight Applejack 86 or Calvados
  • 2 ounces Galliano
  • 2 tablespoons mulling spices
  • ½ pear, sliced, plus more for garnish
  • ½ orange, sliced
  • 4 ounces cranberry syrup
  • Cinnamon sticks, for garnish

Preparation

To make the cranberry syrup, bring all ingredients to a boil, then reduce heat and let cook for 10 minutes, or until the cranberries are soft. Strain and chill until ready to use.

For the cocktails, combine all ingredients except garnishes in a crock pot and heat until warmed through. When ready to serve, garnish each cocktail with a cinnamon stick and pear slice.
