My grandmother Margaret loved to entertain. This was one of her favorite beverages for cold, blustery, rainy days. We’ve served it through the years, usually during the holidays, and it’s always a huge hit. If desired, serve flecked with nutmeg.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups boiling water
- ½ cup white sugar
- ¼ lemon
- 8 whole cloves
- 1 (3 inch) cinnamon stick
- 1 (1.5 liter) bottle red wine
Directions
Step 1
Bring water to a boil in a saucepan; dissolve sugar in water. Stir in lemon quarter, cloves, and cinnamon into water; boil for 10 minutes. Strain and return to saucepan.
Step 2
Stir red wine into water-sugar mixture; heat until piping hot, but not boiling, about 5 minutes.
Cook’s Note:
To heat the wine without boiling it and to keep it hot, I often pour it into a slow cooker and add the strained spiced water there.
