The Williamsburg Winery’s Settlers’ Spiced Wine combines red wine with a nostalgic blend of cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, clove and allspice. This seasonal favorite is easy to make and perfect for serving during a holiday dinner or on a chilly night while cozied up by the fireplace.
Traditional Warm Spiced Wine Recipe
3 cups Settlers’ Spiced Wine
3 cups Apple Cider

2-3 star anise pods

Combine all ingredients and warm in a slow cooker on high until “coffee” hot, turn slow cooker down to keep warm. Do not boil. Ladle into cups and serve. Garnish with cinnamon stick and/or orange wheels.
