Gluhwein Martha Stewart Recipe (with some adaptations)
|
Ingredients:
1 large orange 2 cardamom pods 6 whole cloves 6 allspice berries 6 whole black peppercorns 1 cinnamon stick, plus 4 for garnish (optional) 1 bottle Splattered Toad Shiraz/Cabernet Sauvignon 2010 1/2 cup sugar 1/4 cup brandy
Method:
With a fine grater, zest, then juice the orange. With the flat side of a knife, press firmly on the cardamom pods to bruise them. In a large pot (not aluminum), combine zest, juice, cardamom, cloves, allspice, peppercorns, cinnamon, wine, sugar, and brandy. Cook over medium heat, stirring, until sugar dissolves, 1 to 2 minutes.
Reduce heat to low; simmer until flavors have melded, about 30 minutes. Pour through a fine-mesh sieve; garnish with cinnamon stick, if desired. Serve immediately.
