No, frozen desserts are probably not on the menu in your part of the world.
I’ve just had it out of the freezer to break up the crystals btw, and it is delish. Probably not breakfast food sadly …
I froze the wine-syrup mix to make a granita. π I love mulled wine but it’s too hot to drink it here now, so I’m making frozen desserts with it instead.
ahhh – that explains the question I had. I was surprised you would want to drink a warm mulled wine in the summer … but as a popsicle? mmmm – sounds rather tasty π
Sounds (and of course the photo looks), wonderful. Yum.
I wanted to say thanks so much for always dropping by and visiting my blog despite my erratic posting this last year. Much appreciated.
I hope you and your family have a lovely and Happy Christmas. All the best, Su.

Thank you Amanda. I’m always glad to see a new post — whenever you have time. And I appreciate the support you’ve given me over the year.
All the best to you and your family for 2018. Let’s hope it’s a year of more positives than otherwise π
I suspect you live in a warmer climate than I do. Mulled sounds delishes. Granita, on the other hand…I’d take Grenada over Granita during our snowiest time of the year.
Well, we have humidity too. 70% just the other day…in the form of a wall of snow blocking visibility for miles around. Probably not the same problem you’re having though.
Only if you do it standing on your head. All other approaches are acceptable in my book. (My book, of course is a three-ring binder of recipes stained with use over the years. It might not be the best example to go by, now that I think of it.)
I heartily endorse the healthy part of that equation. But failing health, I’ll take joy and happiness in exchange. I kind of feel that each year is given an abundance of two out of three–like the wishes you get in fairytales that all come with a hidden curse. Don’t ask for more happiness than you could handle, you might not like the mania that you achieve.
Man, maybe I am tippling a bit much of the holiday cheer sauce. That was particularly incoherent statement. *Scrubs brain with fierce shake.*
May your happiness never exceed your reach and your desires always match your ability to enjoy them. There, now that’s just cryptic enough that it might make sense.
Enjoy your mysterious New Year’s sentiment of choice. Or make up your own. Apparently, that’s allowed now.

Very warm at the moment, and humid. So much so that I’m thinking of Greenland rather than Grenada. π
