How to Make Mulled Zin Holiday Zinfandel Wine Punch
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Halve the oranges and place them cut-side down on a baking sheet. Roast for 30-40 minutes, or until caramelized and slightly softened.
- While the oranges roast, combine the Zinfandel, cranberry juice, orange liqueur, cinnamon sticks, cloves, star anise, and allspice berries in a large saucepan.
- Gently heat the wine mixture over medium heat. Do not boil. Simmer for 10-15 minutes to allow the spices to infuse.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and carefully add the roasted oranges to the punch. Squeeze the juice from the oranges into the punch.
- Add the orange zest, if using.
- Let the punch steep for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
- Strain the punch through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the spices and orange peels (optional, for a smoother punch).
- Serve warm in mugs or punch bowls. Garnish with orange slices, cranberries, or cinnamon sticks.
