This is an easy non alcoholic mulled wine recipe, perfect for kids or anyone who would like to enjoy this classic boozy holiday drink without alcohol. Instructions for slow cooker and stove top included!

5 reasons to make non alcoholic mulled wine

• Easy recipe – why not involve your kids in making it?
• Only a few ingredients
• Perfect warm drink for holiday season
• Ingredients can be adjusted to your liking
• Your house will smell amazing thanks to mulled spices that are simmering away in juice

I love making this kid-friendly homemade mulled wine in slow cooker because you can keep it on WARM until you are ready to serve. However, if you don’t have this kitchen gadget, I also included instructions for stove top.

How to make non alcoholic mulled wine with cranberry juice

All you need to do is combine all the ingredients in a slow cooker or in a pot and simmer on low until the juice is infused with mulling spices.

The only “hard” work is cutting oranges into thin slices and squeezing the juice out of them. You can add as many orange slices to the juice as you like.

If you are into making DIY edible gifts, you can also make Candied Oranges dipped in chocolate.

This mulled wine drink can be also made ahead, stored in the fridge and re-heated the following day, if needed!

Tips for making alcohol free mulled wine

• I used cranberry juice to make this homemade mulled wine without alcohol. If you don’t like it or if you are looking for substitutions, try using grape or pomegranate juice instead.
• What about throwing some fresh pomegranate seeds in instead of cranberries?
• For adults I have a recipe for Homemade Mulled Wine.
• Serve this simple mulled wine recipe with Cocoa Roasted Almonds! They make a great snack and go so well together.
• For kids, strain the spices, for adults you can leave them in (or add some extras for decoration), if you like.

More tasty winter drinks:

My favorite one during the Holiday season is without a doubt Gingerbread Hot Chocolate topped with Homemade Gingerbread Syrup.

In case you are expecting guest who can’t eat dairy products or who are vegans, make them a cup of Hot Cocoa with Almond Milk.

They will definitely appreciate your effort!

Ingredients

• 2 Small Oranges , see note 1
• 4 cups Cranberry Juice (1 liter)
• 2 Cinnamon Sticks
• 3 Star Anise
• 4 Whole Cloves
• A pinch of Ground Nutmeg
• A Handful of Fresh/Frozen Cranberries , optional

Recommended Products

• Slow Cooker

Instructions 

• For Stove Top: Put all the ingredients in a pot (see note 1). Simmer on low for 20 minutes (for stronger spiced flavor, simmer longer or turn it off and let it infuse for up to 1 hour).
• For Slow Cooker: Put all the ingredients in slow cooker (see note 1) and cover with lid. Cook on LOW for 1.5 hours. Keep on WARM until you are ready to serve.

Notes

1. Cut 1 orange into thin slices and use the second one to squeeze the juice out of it. You can also use 1 orange only. Make sure you buy organic oranges for this. If not, let them sit in hot water for 5-10 minutes and rinse under running water to get rid of any possible wax or pesticide residue.
2. This recipe can be easily doubled, tripled or halved.
3. You can make this ahead and re-heat when needed. If you leave the spices in, they will infuse the juice more making it stronger.
4. This recipe does not call for any sugar as the cranberry juice I used was sweet enough. I recommend you taste it after it has been simmered and add sugar, if you feel it is needed.
5. I used an 8-ounce (250 milliliters) cups. If using smaller cups, you will get more servings out of this recipe. If using larger ones, you will get less.
