Recipes: Winter Spice Wine

Winter Spice Wine
 

This Winter Spice Wine is a homemade version of Glühwei, a mulled wine popular in Germany and easy to make on the stovetop. It's the same wine used to make our Christmas Wine Linzers--that is, if you can keep people from drinking it all first!

This recipe is part of our Shimmering Sippables series, just in time for New Year's!

They say the secret to creating a great Glühwein is simply mixing quality red wine, cinnamon stick, oranges and cloves. Some add about a 1/4 cup of sugar per bottle of wine if more sweetness is desired, but taste it first!

Ingredients

1 bottle Merlot
6 whole cloves
1 cinnamon stick
1 orange

Preparation

Simmer a bottle of Merlot on stove top with clove and sliced orange and a cinnamon stick for an hour.
Remove from heat and let cool, or serve warm.
