Red Wine – 2 litres Inexpensive Sicilian red wine
3 Cinnamon sticks
6 Cloves
A good pinch of Nutmeg
1 x Orange partially cut through
1 x Lemon partially cut through
Spanish Brandy (1/2 Bottle 37.5cl with 2 litres) – Very important, gets the party going and aids a good night’s sleep!
Sugar to taste – Don’t be frightened
Put the wine into a large pan and heat to a simmer, turn it down do not let it boil, as all the alcohol will go and it defeats the object, Hic!
Put in the spices, cut the fruit and put it in.
Put the brandy in to taste, but again do not be shy, if you want a mild drink, be sparing but for real mulled wine follow the instructions.
Once the mixture is ready, add sugar to your own taste but a couple of tablespoons will not touch the sides, this is not a weightwatchers recipe.
Heat but don’t boil the liquid until the sugar has gone then, call ‘em up to help you drink it!!!
It marinates well overnight - Happy Hangovers!!!
Serves Plenty………
