Ingredients
6 servings
- •0.75 cup water
- •0.75 cup white sugar
- •1 (3 inch) cinnamon stick
- •2 medium oranges, divided
- •10 whole cloves
- •1 (750 milliliter) bottle red wine
Instructions
- Gather all ingredients.
- Combine water, sugar, and cinnamon stick in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low.
- Cut one orange in half; squeeze orange halves over the sugar mixture to release their juice. Push 5 cloves into the outside of each orange peel; place peels into the simmering mixture. Continue to simmer over the lowest heat until thick and syrupy, 20 to 30 minutes.
- While the mixture is simmering, slice remaining orange and set aside for serving.
- When the mixture is finished simmering, stir in wine and heat until steaming but not simmering, 3 to 5 minutes. Discard orange peels and cinnamon stick.
- Ladle into mugs and garnish with orange slices.
