Deemed a popular beverage around the world , Glühwein (German), grzane wino (Polish) , vin brulé (Italian), vin chaud (French), Glögg (Swedish), Mulled Wine (English), is an excellent cure for pre-holiday fever. Typically it's consumed around Christmas time, but then again...it's October...and it's cold outside, so those seem like good enough reasons to whip up a batch.
Ingredients:
1 large orange
3 cinnamon sticks
3 cinnamon sticks
13 whole cloves
1/4 cup honey
1 bottle red wine (red table wine or a bottle of merlot)
Directions:
- Gently zest the orange . When finished zesting, slice the orange.
- In a large (non-aluminum) pot, combine the orange zest, orange slices, cinnamon sticks, cloves, honey and wine.
- Without boiling the mixture, simmer on low heat for about 25 minutes or until hot. Taste and add more honey if necessary.
- Strain and serve.
