Absolute best stuff after being out shoveling the drive.

Recipe: German Glühwein
  • 1/2 medium orange
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 1/4 cup turbinado or granulated sugar
  • 20 whole cloves
  • 2 cinnamon sticks
  • 2 whole star anise
  • 1 (750-milliliter) bottle dry red wine
  • Rum or amaretto, for serving (optional)
Warm, Don’t Boil
Mulling wine is not exactly rocket science, but there are a few tips to keep in mind. The first and most important rule? Do not let the wine boil or you will boil off the alcohol! I tend to let it heat gently for about 20 minutes before my guests arrive. It’s also not worth spending a ton of money on the wine here. Any dry red wine, from Chianti to Cabernet Sauvignon, will work. The recipe scales very easily for a smaller post-dinner cuddle-up or a holiday crowd. And then there’s the optional Schuss, or shot of hard liquor (usually rum or amaretto). I tend to order and make my Glühwein without it — especially if it’s the first of several glasses — but it does keep you warmer!

Adding this to the cookbook!! Thanks for sharing. Wife buys some of this somewhere lol and it is really good!!

Lol!
When you love food as much as I do, but your diet is literally killing you, sometimes doing one healthy thing gives you enough denial to let you enjoy some good food.

Besides, mama gets to bake those. As long as she stays away from the meat that’s fine by me..
And she’s a horrible cook/baker.
