I'm planning my christmas day drinks and will make either of the above (or both, depending on how easy they are). Any nice, tried and tested recipes?

I usually use a Schwartz sachet of mulled wine spices & follow recipe on box - it's easy & fab.

Also have this recipe: serves 10-20 people.
4 bottles red wine, 1.5 litres lemonade, 3 cinammon sticks, 4 cloves, 500g demerara sugar, 2 lemons (sliced), 2 oranges (sliced), 1 glass dark rum, 1 glass stones ginger wine. All in pan & simmered for 20 mins.

Never tried egg nog!

You can make mulled wine much more ismply by just bunging a couple of cinnamon sticks and some cloves in a pan with the wine. No need for all the fruit/oj, sugar etc (warmed sangria!)

Just don't let it boil!

750ml red wine
600ml cranberry juice
300ml orange juice
1 wine spice sachet
1 cinnamon stick

1 orange
1 apple

at MerryWays recipe for 10-20 people - that's my kind of numbers alright!

Thanks, I'll give them a test run tonight.

I haven't had eggnog in years but remember drinking it when I was younger and loving it so would like to try it again.
