Taking inspiration from the traditional boozy beverage of European Christmas markets, Merry Maker's Mulled Wine is a twist on a classic. Instead of the typical red wine, we opt for a semi-sweet Riesling, allowing the flavors of hibiscus and spice in Merry Maker's Punch take center stage. Working in perfect harmony, a bit of wine warmed with a bit of Merry Maker's Punch is all you need to make this quintessentially cozy concoction.Â
