Spicy warming aromas of gingerbread
and mulled wine spilt in the air
announce the approaching holidays.
Did you know that gingerbread can
be useful and mulled wine does not
only warm you up but also helps with
a cold?
mULLED wINE FOR COLD
2 clementines
1 lemon
1 lime
200g caster sugar
6 whole cloves
1 cinnamon stick
3 fresh bay leaves
1 whole nutmeg, for grating
1 vanilla pod
2 star anise
2 bottles Chianti or other Italian red wine
Use a speed-peeler to shave large sections of
peel from the clementines, lemon and lime.
After, put the sugar in a large saucepan over
a medium heat, add the pieces of peel and
squeeze in the clementine juice. Add the
cloves, cinnamon stick, bay leaves and about
10 to 12 gratings of nutmeg. Halve the vanilla
pod lengthways and add to the pan, then stir
in just enough red wine to cover the sugar.
Keep the mix on a rolling boil for about 4 to
5 minutes, or until you’ve got a beautiful thick
syrup. When your syrup is ready, turn the heat
down to low and add your star anise and the
rest of the wine. Gently heat the wine, and af-
ter around 5 minutes, when it’s warm and deli-
cious, ladle it into heatproof glasses and serve.
