This delicious drink can be served hot or cold. We used blood orange for a more dramatic look, but normal oranges work just as well. This is perfect for sharing with your neighbour!
INGREDIENTS
- 1 bottle red wine
- 90ml kirsch
- 10 cloves
- 2 blood oranges
- 1 star anise
- 1 stick cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
METHOD
- Heat red wine, kirsch, cloves, the juice of one orange, star anise,
cinnamon and sugar in a pan until hot but not boiling. - Simmer,
stirring occasionally, for 20 minutes. Allow to cool a little if
drinking hot; if serving cold, allow to cool and refrigerate until
ready to serve. - Slice your second orange into thin wheels and serve.
TOP TIP: If you’ve got a jar of cherries handy, add a few to
your drink, along with a little of the syrup, for an extra sweet hit.
