Needed:
1 bottle of red wine (70cl-100cl)
10 cl (1 deciliter) vodka or similar spirits
4-5 pieces of cinnamon sticks (you know them thingies, about 1" long)
1-2 pieces of ginger (about 1"*1"*0.5" in size)
1-2 teaspoons of cardamom seeds
1-2 pieces of Seville orange peel
2-3 deciliters of sugar
1 teaspoon of vanilla sugar.
Grind the cardmom and crush the cinnamon, chop the Seville orange peel
and smash the cardamom seeds... Try to damage the ginger to the best of
your ability.
Put them spices and the spirits in a glass jar and close with a lid.
Let this rest for about 24hours so that the taste of them spices goes into the alcohol.
Filter the mix through some sorta of coffee filter or similar, somehow separate the spices from the liquid. How you do it isnt important.
Mix the wine and the spiced up alcohol, add sugar and vanilla sugar to your liking and stir until all sugar is dissolved.
Pour into bottle and serve it hot.
Not boiling hot mind you, just nicely hot.
Well above room temperature, and chit, just not boiling.
Like tea I suppose, hot but not boiling. Boiling will make the alcohol go away
