Teetotaler Mulled “Wine”

Ingredients:

• 4 tsp loose or 4 teabags Assam black tea
• 1 orange sliced into rounds
• 8 whole cloves
• 2 cinnamon sticks (break them to let off flavour)
• 6 juniper berries
• 750 ml pomegranate/cranberry juice

If using loose leaf tea, place in cheesecloth. Combine tea, orange slices, cloves, cinnamon and pomegranate juice in a pot and bring to a gentle simmer. Remove from heat and allow to steep for an hour. Strain out tea and spices and chill. 

Serve in a wine glass, cocktail glass and garnish with pomegranate seeds, orange slices, cinnamon stick or cranberries.

NOTE: If you prefer to drink this warm, simply ladle straight from pot into serving glasses.
