PDS Mulled Wine

It's that time of year, and mulled wine is unavoidable. It's a simple drink, and with so many high street shops selling pre-made bottles for as little as £4 you may grab a bargain. But if you make it from scratch with your favourite bottle of red, you'll feel Oh So Festive. Trust me.

1 bottle of your favourite red; I use Toro Loco, but any good Cabernet Sauvignon or Merlot would be good too.
A good handful of cloves
1 or 2 cinnamon sticks
A dash of fresh OJ
A pinch of hot chocolate.

Stir it all over a low heat, adding the hot chocolate and OJ right at the end to taste. Serve straight away with fresh orange slices and cheesy Christmas music.
