I’ve made various alcoholic jellies over the years. I started with vodka jellies back in my early twenties followed by champagne bubbly jellies as my tastes matured ( ha I still love a vodka jelly!). Today I’m sharing a recipe for a super simple Mulled Wine Jelly which would make a great light festive dessert or a treat which could be served in mini shot glasses at a party. It’s easy because I used ready made jelly cubes from a packet but you could use gelatine sheets if you prefer. I liked the orangey flavour of the jelly cubes which complements the mulled wine so perfectly.

You will need:

1 packet – Orange Jelly Cubes
Mulled wine
water

Add boiling water ( amount on packet instructions )to your broken up jelly cubes, then instead of adding cold water use mulled wine to make up the remaining liquid. Pour into serving dishes ( cocktail glasses look effective) and pop in some clementine pieces and refrigerate until set. Approximately 4-6 servings.

For a maximum of 5 minutes effort you have a simple yet delicious dessert which is perfect for Christmas.
