Mulled wine: how many degrees of alcohol should it be?
The classic mulled wine recipe uses dry red wine, the strength of which is 12%. Using different wines to prepare this “warming” drink, we can safely say that the alcohol content ranges from 10 to 13%, depending on whether you chose a sweet wine or not.
IMPORTANT: It is worth knowing that this percentage is typical for a cold drink. If you drink classic warm or hot mulled wine, you need to know that alcohol can evaporate during the cooking process. The final product will be 5-7% alcoholic part.
How long does it take to brew alcoholic mulled wine?
One of the important conditions for preparing mulled wine is to bring it to evaporation, but not to a boil. If your drink starts to boil, consider that you have already “ruined” the mulled wine. The fact is that if a liquid with wine and spices reaches a temperature higher than 70-80 degrees, other negative reactions begin to occur in it and the beneficial qualities of the drink simply disappear.
You should cook mulled wine only on low heat on the stove or in a slow cooker using the “stew” mode. Approximate cooking time 15-20 minutes. If you feel that the liquid is prone to boiling, add a new ingredient or turn off the heat. After preparing the drink, cover it with a lid and let it leave for 5-10 minutes before use.
How to serve the drink?
To what temperature should you heat alcoholic mulled wine when serving?
While the mulled wine will infuse under the lid and saturate its taste with the aroma of spices, its temperature will drop slightly - and this is good. The fact is that to drink the drink must be approximately 50-60 degrees. A temperature above this mark, firstly, will not allow you to enjoy mulled wine, and secondly, it is not acceptable for the stomach.
