    How to Make Mulled Wine

    In the winter, mulled wine is the best comfort drink ever. Do you agree with me? I don’t really drink alcohol, but in the winter, I like to drink a cup of warm mulled wine.

I want to take advantage of the summer ‘till it lasts because before you know it, it’s over. (sad face) I’m not so much of a beach person, more of a forest and mountains, I like to move, even though I’m not so much of a sports person. (the irony!) But I hate staying on a beach doing nothing.
