[QUOTE="Snattlerake, post: 3312888, member: 44288"] Absolute best stuff after being out shoveling the drive. [SIZE=6][B]Recipe: German Glühwein[/B][/SIZE] [LIST] [*]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) [/LIST] [SIZE=4][B]Warm, Don’t Boil[/B][/SIZE] 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 [I]Schuss[/I], or shot of hard liquor (usually rum or amaretto). I tend to order and make my [I]Glühwein[/I] without it — especially if it’s the first of several glasses — but it does keep you warmer! [/QUOTE]
