How-To: Make Mulled Wine

It seems like we’ve skipped directly over Fall, and went straight to Winter here in the Northeast, so its time to break out those recipes that will keep us warm through the snows ahead. Try this recipe for Mulled Wine, for a warm drink to sip in front of the fireplace.
1 bottle wine (either red or white)
2/3 cup sugar
1/2 cup brandy
6 cloves
1 cinnamon stick
orange peel from 1/2 an orange

In a non-aluminum sauce pan, heat the wine over low heat. Add the sugar, brandy, spices, and orange peel. Cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the wine begins to steam. Do not let the wine boil. Ladle into serving glasses, leaving the spices and peel behind.
