A Patagonian Libation
Vino Navegador (Hot Mulled Wine)
Vino Navegador
1 bottle dry red wine
1/2 cup sugar
1 orange and/or 1/2 grapefruit
6 cloves
1/2 cup raisins
2 cinnamon sticks
Pour wine in a pan. Slice orange and/or grapefruit and stick cloves in two of the slices. Add remaining ingredients, simmer over low flame for 30 to 45 minutes, and enjoy the rich aroma as the wine mulls. After drinking, eat the fruit, and while in the spirit, why not save the peel for marmalade?
