Mulled Wine
A warming alcoholic drink traditionally made during Christmas. The spices will heat you up after being out in the cold after a heavy shopping trip.
Ingredients 2 bottles red wine (dark & oaky wine is best, not a light fruity one). Cinnamon bark Cardamom pods 3 to 4 tablespoons dark brown sugar 2 clementines, satsumas or oranges 1 lemon 4 clove storks 2 bay leaves 1 Earl Grey tea bag 10ml dark rum
Preparation Pour the wine into a large pot. Turn the heat to high.
Break in 2 cinnamon sticks. Crush several cardamom pods and add into the wine. Add in the sugar.
Cut the clementines in half and pierce each with a stork of clove then add into the pot along with 2 bay leaves and the halved lemon.
Boil the kettle and make a cup of tea by infusing the Earl Grey teabag for about 1 minute. Add the tea into the wine along with 10ml of rum.
Bring the pot to the boil then turn down the heat to very low. Allow all of the flavours to infuse for about 15 minutes whilst not allowing too much of the alcohol to burn off.
Taste and add extra sugar if needed.
Serving - Ladle the wine into glasses and serve.
