圣诞热红酒
During the Christmas / New Year holiday season, I made several batches of mulled wine. It is quite tasty and festive, perfect for a layback afternoon by the fireplace.
Most alcohol has evaporated during cooking process, so even people who don’t usually drink can also enjoy it. O(∩_∩)O~
The recipe is originally adapted from Ina Garten’s mulled wine from foodnetwork: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/ina-garten/mulled-wine-recipe-1950801. The original version requires more spices, a little too much for my taste. So I do some minor changes according our preference. Many thanks to Ina Garten! O(∩_∩)O~
Ingredients:
1/2 bottle red wine (I use merlot)
2 oranges
2 cups of apple cider
1 cinnamon stick
2 tablespoons of honey
2 cloves
Directions:
Juice one orange and peel the other one. Arrange orange peel in wine glasses for decoration and more flavors.
Add red wine, orange juice, apple cider, cinnamon, honey and cloves in a stainless steel pot. Cook over medium high heat until it boils. Reduce the heat to simmer for 8 to 10 minutes.
Divide the mulled wine between glasses with orange peels
Serve hot immediately
