Easy Non-Alcoholic Mulled Wine Recipe
McGuigan Zero Shiraz is the perfect choice for this recipe as it is a rich and fruit-forward red wine with subtle spicy notes and a balanced flavour of sweet blackcurrant. It is a wonderful match for the spicy and citrus aromatics you will add to your brew.
Ingredients
- 750ml McGuigan Zero Shiraz Alcohol Free
- 2 thick slices of orange (you can also add extra fresh or dried orange peel for a more intense flavour)
- 2 tablespoons of honey
- 3 cinnamon sticks (plus extra to garnish)
- 3 star anise
- 1 grated nutmeg
How to Make Alcohol-Free Mulled Wine
Place all ingredients in a medium-sized saucepan on medium heat. Stir gently and bring to a simmer. Do not boil. Simmer gently for a further 20 minutes. With a slotted spoon, sieve out the larger spices and orange slices and set them aside for garnish. Use a ladle to pour the warm mulled wine into a heatproof glass or mug. Optional: Add the orange slices, cinnamon sticks, and star anise into the mug as a garnish.
Note: Sugar can be added to taste. Put it in at the end of the brewing process and make sure it completely dissolves in the heat before serving.
Tips for Making the Best Alcohol-Free Mulled Wine
- To gently extract the delicate flavour from the aromatics, never boil the mulled wine. Keep it on a gentle simmer for at least 20 minutes. A longer infusion time will give it a more intense flavour.
- Since it is a hot beverage, you need to serve it in a glass or mug that can withstand heat and protect your hands from burning. It also helps to choose a mug with handles and a wide opening, so your guests can drink the wine with the aromatics inside.
- Experiment with different spices to suit your taste. Other spices to consider adding to the mix include cardamom, ginger, clove, allspice, and juniper berry.
- Mulled wine can be made in advance. Once you have made the brew, let it cool and then refrigerate. Reheat in a saucepan on the stove on low heat for around 20 minutes and serve warm.
How Long Does Non-Alcoholic Mulled Wine Last?
Non-alcoholic mulled wine will last for 3-4 days when stored in a covered container in the fridge.
How to Store Non-Alcoholic Mulled Wine?
Any leftover mulled wine must be cooled completely before it can be stored in a sealed container in the fridge for 3-4 days. You can also freeze the mulled wine. Once cooled, pour it into a freezer-proof container, making sure you allow a couple of inches of extra space to prevent overflowing.
Can I Make Non-Alcoholic Mulled Wine in a Slow Cooker?
To make this non-alcoholic mulled wine in your slow cooker, simply add all the ingredients into the inner pot and cook on low for 1.5 hours. You can then switch the slow cooker to the warm setting when it’s time to serve.

About McGuigan Wines
Once upon a time, in the picturesque Hunter Valley of Australia, there was a family with a passion for winemaking. This family, the McGuigans, had a dream to create wines that would captivate the world. And so began their enchanting journey, spanning over four generations and more than a century of dedication to the art of winemaking.
In the early days, the McGuigans worked tirelessly to refine their craft, exploring the secrets of the fertile Australian soil and the sun-kissed grapes that grew in their vineyards. With each passing generation, the family's knowledge grew, and their love for winemaking deepened.
As the years went by, the McGuigans not only became masters of traditional winemaking but also fearless innovators. They were driven by an unyielding desire to push the boundaries of what was possible in the world of wine. And so, their quest led them to the creation of the McGuigan Zero range – a collection of exquisite, alcohol-free wines that would change the game forever.
The McGuigans knew that the key to unlocking the true potential of alcohol-free wine lay in the magical spinning cone technology. With this cutting-edge process, they could strip the wine of its alcohol content without sacrificing its rich and complex flavours. And thus, the enchanting McGuigan Zero Shiraz NV was born.
But the story doesn't end there. The McGuigans' relentless pursuit of excellence earned them the prestigious title of International Winemaker of the Year a record-breaking four times! This incredible feat stands as a testament to their unwavering commitment to bringing the finest Australian wines to the world.
And so, the legend of the McGuigan family continues to grow, as they craft spellbinding wines that enchant the palates of wine lovers across the globe. With each sip of the mesmerising McGuigan Zero Shiraz NV, you too can embark on a captivating journey through the enchanting world of Australian winemaking, and perhaps even find your own happily ever after.
