This was a staple in winter while I lived in Romania. It warms you up and then it warms you up. It is also forgiving if you have a cheapie bottle of wine and are not sure what to do with it. Ingredients:
1/2 cup sugar |
1/4 cup water |
10 whole cloves |
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
3 peppercorns, whole |
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg (to taste) |
1 orange, juice and rind of (peel it and then squeeze out juice) |
1 apple, peeled and cored |
1 (750 ml) bottle red wine |
Directions:
1. Combine everything but the wine in a pan and boil for 5 minutes.
2. Add wine and heat to just before boiling. Try not to let it boil or the alcohol will evaporate.
3. Strain into cups and serve hot.
4. Can be garnished with a cinnamon stick.
