- Ingredients
- 3 Cinnamon stick (3 inches each, plus extra for garnish)
- 10 whole cloves
- 10 whole Black pepper
- 1 tsp allspice (about 25)
- 6 cups Red wine (medium or full-bodied)
- 4 strips Orange zest (2 inches long by 1/2 inch wide; pith removed)
- ½ cup granulated sugar (plus 2 tablespoons)
- 2 Tbsps Brandy
- assorted Fruit (cinnamon sticks and spices for garnish)
Preparation steps
1.
Toast cinnamon sticks, cloves, peppercorns, and allspice in medium heavy-bottomed nonreactive saucepan over medium-high heat until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add wine, orange zest, and 1/2 cup sugar; cover partially and bring to simmer, stirring occasionally to dissolve sugar. Reduce heat to low and simmer 1 hour until wine is infused; do not boil.
2.
Strain wine through fine-mesh strainer; return wine to saucepan and discard spices and orange zest. Stir 2 tablespoons brandy into wine; taste and add up to 2 tablespoons more sugar and 2 tablespoons more brandy, if desired. Ladle wine into small mugs or glasses; serve immediately. Garnish with fruit, cinnamon sticks and spices (optional).
