Spiced Wine for Cold Weather

Baby, it's COLD outside! This weather has us sipping on hot mulled wine! It’s so easy to make:

Ingredients

1 bottle of Red Wine (Try Old Silo Chambourcin )

1 large orange

1–2 Tbsp maple syrup or sugar

5 whole cinnamon sticks

6 whole cloves

3 star anise

Brandy to taste

Slice the oranges and put into a heavy-bottomed pot. Then pour in the bottle of wine and optional brandy. Finally add the cinnamon sticks, whole cloves, and star anise. Sweeten to taste. Warm on medium heat — 5 minutes should do it — then serve in a mug and enjoy!
