Glendora's Mulled Wine

Who better to ring in on the subject of mulled wine than our favorite cousin, Glendora? Her unending loyalty to wine (Franzia Merlot, to be specific) leads her to discover countless ways to make it perfect for every occasion, including Christmas. She even took to Periscope in order to show mulled wine being made in real time! Here is her recipe. If you like your mulled wine on the sweet side, add 1/4 - 1/2 cup of honey to these ingredients.

Glendora’s Mulled Wine

.750 ML Franzia Merlot

1/4 cup brandy

1/2 cup pure cranberry juice

1/2 cup pomegranate juice

1/2 cup orange juice

5 cinnamon sticks

20 cloves

1 star anise

2 rosemary sprigs

Combine all ingredients in a crock pot and turn to high until mixture begins to simmer. Turn to the low setting and continue for three hours total.

Happy, wine-filled holidays from Glendora!

Thanksgiving With The Family

Here's a little preview of what we have in store for Thanksgiving here at the Kitsch-en! As you can see, Glendora and Uncle Sid (Glendora's father) will be in attendance.  Glendora is bringing the Hot Dog Casserole and the Franzia Merlot (her favorite, in case she hasn't told you). Uncle Sid is bringing his usual complaints.  Tomorrow's episode will be all about taming Thanksgiving tension for holiday hosts and next Tuesday (November 24) Glendora will pitch in with a few turkey day tips of her own!

Hot Dog Casserole and boxed wine: Glendora's perfect Thanksgiving!

Family time!

Glendora has generously shared the recipe for her casserole. It looks so charming next to the turkey and all the trimmings on a Thanksgiving buffet!
