Homemade Mulled Wine using your MOD Cold Press Juicer

With those frosty, winter mornings setting in, the idea of bringing out your juicer to make a cold pressed juice can be unappealing. I find in winter, my tea and coffee consumption increases and my cravings for colder drinks disappear.

Mulled wine is a classic winter drink and though it is on the indulgent side, by going an extra step and cold pressing your own oranges to make the recipe, you might as well juice a little extra and enjoy a glass of cold pressed orange juice the next day for breakfast. As someone who used to spend winters plagued with colds and flu's, ensuring I get a healthy dose or fruit and vegetables through the season has been pivotal in building up my immune defence.
