2. 2

   Add store-bought sugar-free 100% orange juice or freshly squeezed orange juice to a pan. Also, add a cinnamon stick, 2 star anise, green cardamom pods, black peppercorns, cloves, and orange peel. Adding brown sugar is optional; sweetener can be added at this stage, but it's entirely optional. Then turn the heat to low and cover the pan. Allow the drink to simmer for 8-10 minutes. Once done, remove it from the heat.

   Pour the mixture into a serving mug, and you can remove the spices. Top it with some almond flakes and dried cranberries. Your mulled orange juice or hot spiced orange juice is now ready to sip on a cold winter evening. It is a perfect holiday drink for kids and those who avoid alcohol.
