Glühwein (Mulled Wine)

Sort of based off another recipe.

Tools:

• Sauce pan or pot with a lid
• Strainer
• Thermometer

Ingredients:

• 3l wine (Costco boxed Cabernet Sauvignon or Pinot Grigio)
• 1/2 cup Grand Marnier
• 2 whole oranges
• 12 whole cloves
• 3 cinnamon sticks
• 8 tbsp maple syrup (or agave or honey, but then it’s a different amount)

Quantity adjustments:

If you base this off less or more wine, the rest of the ingredients don’t scale the same. For example, here is the list for 750ml:

• 750ml wine (Costco boxed Cabernet Sauvignon or Pinot Grigio)
• 1/4 cup Grand Marnier
• 1 whole orange
• 8 whole cloves
• 2 cinnamon sticks
• 2 tbsp maple syrup

Cooking:

1. Cut oranges into six slices each, do not peel
2. Combine all the ingredients in a sauce pan or pot
3. Heat on high to 70C while stirring occasionally, then immediately reduce to lowest heat
4. Simmer on lowest heat for 1-2hrs. Do not let it heat past 70C to avoid losing precious alcohol!
5. Taste test, add maple syrup/honey and Grand Marnier to taste
6. Filter out and discard the solids. Keep the orange slices if you’ll eat them - I do!
7. Drink!
