    Mulled Wine


    [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

    Serves 12

    Ingredients
    2 x 75 cl bottles medium to full-bodied red wine (Bulgarian Cabernet Sauvignon is ideal)
    1 orange stuck with cloves
    2 oranges, sliced
    2 lemons, sliced
    6 level tablespoons granulated sugar or honey
    2 inch (5 cm) piece cinnamon stick
    2 level teaspoons finely grated fresh root ginger or ground ginger
    2 tablespoons fruit liqueur such as Cointreau, Grand Marnier or cherry brandy (optional)

    Method
    Put all the ingredients in a saucepan with 2 1/2 pints (1.5 litres) water then heat to simmering point, stirring until all the sugar has dissolved. Keep it barely at simmering point for at least 20 minutes – but do not boil or all the alcohol will evaporate.

    This can be made in advance, then re-heated just before the party. Serve it warm in half-pint mugs (in which case there will be 12 servings) or else in 24 sturdy wine glasses.
