Bulleit Mulled Wine

Whiskey
Prep time: 15 mins
Author: The Bar Team
A bottle of whiskey, three glasses of mulled cocktail with cinnamon sticks, a steaming saucepan, and sliced fruits are arranged on a wooden table.

In this batched Bulleit Mulled Wine recipe, two of the season’s biggest players are combined: Bulleit Bourbon Whiskey Blenders’ Select and mulled wine. The bold, spicy character of this high-rye whiskey lends itself to the warming flavors of star anise, clove and cinnamon. When combined with Zinfandel, a jammy wine replete with plum and blackberry tasting notes, the bourbon’s toffee-flavored finish sings. Sip this one fireside for a chance to warm up from the inside out.
