If coziness has a fragrance, it's the aroma of red wine simmering on the stove with citrus and spices (and a little brandy for a bit more zing). Choose a red wine that isn't bone-dry-a little fruitiness is just fine here. I like the inexpensive Zweigelt from Erdenlied for this, which conveniently comes in 1-liter bottles.

Time 45m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 large oranges
4 1/4 cups/1 liter red wine
1 1/4 cups/10 ounces brandy
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
2 cinnamon sticks
6 whole cloves
3 cardamom pods, slightly crushed

Steps:

  • Using a peeler, remove the peel in strips from 1 orange then juice the orange. Slice the other orange into rounds and reserve for garnish.
  • In a nonreactive saucepan, combine orange peel, juice and the rest of the ingredients. Stir over medium heat until the sugar dissolves, about 2 minutes. Increase the heat to high, bring mixture to a boil, then immediately reduce the heat to low. Simmer gently until flavors meld, about 30 minutes. Strain the mixture, discarding the solids.
  • Ladle into cups or mugs. Garnish each with a reserved orange round.
