If you’re like me, you know spiced wine is a must-have during the fall and winter holidays. The warm, comforting drink is sweet and spicy in perfect balance — it’s just what the season tastes like. Of course, not everyone can or wants to drink alcohol, and that’s okay. The question is, can you make non-alcoholic spiced wine? And is it any good?
That’s where Seedlip Spice 94 comes in. The botanical infusion with hints of cardamom and allspice and the loveliest citrus undertones elevates the orange spiced ‘wine’ below, making it a fantastic seasonal mocktail that looks and tastes almost as good as the real deal.
Red grape juice, pomegranate juice and Seedlip are the base for this zero-alcohol spiced wine, while cinnamon and orange slices add to the drink the holiday’s spirit.
