## Directions
|
|
|
|
1. Pour the wine into a stock pot and turn the gas on medium high
|
|
2. Crush all the "Crushed Ingredients" in a mortar and pestle
|
|
3. Peel and juice the orange and lemon (toss the peels and juice into the wine but not the white pith)
|
|
4. When the wine is up to a simmer, immediately bring the gas down to low and pour in all the rest of the ingredients
|
|
5. Cook on low for at least 15 minutes to infuse the flavors
|
|
6. Keep the flame on low so the wine stays warm and continues to infuse, but doesn't bubble / burn off the alcohol
|
|
7. Feel free to double the recipe or scale any of these ingredients up or down to suite your taste
