For a non-alcoholic version, substitute the red wine with cranberry juice or pomegranate juice. Add a splash of brandy or orange liqueur for an extra layer of warmth and flavor. Adjust the amount of honey to your liking, depending on the sweetness of your apple juice and wine. Use high-quality spices for the best flavor. Strain the mulled wine through a fine-mesh sieve before serving for a smoother texture.
