Great for a cold night. I would suggest using fruity wine like merlot. I used shiraz last night and it definitely did not work. Stole this recipe from taste.com and mucked around with cooking times etc 🙂
Ingredients:
10 cloves
2 cinnamon sticks
1/4 cup caster sugar
2 teaspoons nutmeg
2 cups water
rinds of 1 orange
1 apple chopped
750ml fruity red wine
Method:
- Place cloves, cinnamon sticks, caster sugar, nutmeg, rinds, apple and water in a pan and heat on medium
- Bring to a simmer, reduce to low and simmer for 15 minutes
- add red wine and simmer for 5 more minutes
- Drain the mixture
- Serve immediately. I use coffee filter paper to filter out any smaller particles
