A traditional mulled wine has wine, orange, brandy, cloves, honey, cinnamon sticks, and a big hunk of fresh ginger.
We changed it up by adding pear and cranberries!
Importance of relaxing
For us, this is the week to intentionally relax. Mindful relaxation is mandatory for good, healthy living. We love to take turns sitting by the fire. To set aside a little quiet time every day to stop and be still. Yesterday we listed to classical music in our home. So beautiful!
Enjoy the last few days of 2018!
Serve warm and garnish with more citrus slices, pear slices, and cinnamon sticks!
