How much mulling spice should I use per bottle of wine?
Mulling spices are a great way to add flavor to your wine. However, you don’t want to overdo it and make your wine too spicy. The general rule of thumb is to use about 1/4 teaspoon of mulling spices per bottle of wine. This will give your wine a nice flavor without making it too spicy. If you want a stronger flavor, you can add a little more, but be careful not to add too much.
