Its just takes one sip to become a fan of this hot spiced wine..tastes like elixir on a freezing wintery night.

For each 750 ml (3 cups) of wine:

  • 1 stick cinnamon
  • 6 whole cloves
  • Rind of half a lemon
  • 2 to 4 Tbs. sugar
  • Cardamon pod (optional)
  • Rum, brandy, vodka or schnapps (optional)

Use cheap wine. Not that cheap, but still cheap, Carlo Rossi or Livingstone will do fine, but will need more sugar. The amount of sugar is inversely proportional to the cheapness of the wine.
