Thank you for coming along to the Christmas VIP event on Sunday and making it such a lovely evening. Many of you asked for the recipe for the non-alcoholic mulled wine, so here it is:

Non-alcoholic Mulled Wine Recipe

600ml cranberry juice
250ml apple juice

2 tsp honey
Oranges sliced

Mulling spices:

1. In a pot add sugar and orange juice. Boil until the consistency turns thicker and becomes syrupy.
