Sounds like a hot toddy.  Also, I am drinking wines now and Google figured out that I was searching for mulled wine when I typed "mulklll."

Here's one that will blow your rough ridin' mind...


In the olden days, they would heat rocks (smoothed lake stones, prolly) up on the fire, and then put the spices and wine in the mug, then take the rock "mulling stone" and put it in the mug to make it all hot and stuff and really get it all mulling.

False.  The name comes from the inventor.  Second Lt. Christophe Mulling who heated wine and spices for his platoon on his charger's flanks during the battle of Arbonne

So you use cheap wine for this right?  I mean, ppl mull it to cover up the shitty taste of shitty wine, right?

You can also do a great mulling spices mix on the stove with cider and rum.

Seriously though, the scorching hot stone from the fire is suppose to singe the ingredients at the bottom of the mug, and cause them to release their "flavor" to a greater degree (said the book).  I haven't tried it.  However, you prolly do not want to do this in crystal goblets.  You'll want to use heat resistant mugs.

I'd start with a Black Box Merlot (or similar box quality, better than Franzia), and most grocers have "mulling spices."

Just warm them up on the stove and go nuts.

Q: Would it be cool to drink it directly from a ladle at a party? Get a few laughs or too Cousin Eddie-y?
