Yes! Mulled Lemon and Spice Wine...

1 bottle of dry red or rose table wine

1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup water
4 whole cloves
4 whole allspice
1 1" stick cinnamon
2 2" twists lemon peel

Combine sugar, water, cloves, allspice and cinnamon in a saucepan. Heat to boiling, reduce heat, and simmer one minute.

Add wine and lemon peel. Heat until steam rises. DO NOT BOIL. Serve in mugs. Makes 6 5-oz. servings.

My notes...

I have a Corning Ware teapot with a lid, and a thermometer that measures up to 180 degrees F. I heat the water/sugar/spice mixture in the teapot until boiling, simmer, then I add the bottle of wine and the lemon peel, stick the thermometer into the pot, close the lid, and just simmer it until it warms to 130 degrees F, then remove the pot from the heat. Heating it any hotter evaporates the alcohol. Trapping the steam in the teapot puts the evaporating alcohol back into the wine, so your mulled wine is much more fun to drink. Making this in an open saucepan evaporates the alcohol, but it still tastes good.

After I make a batch, I pour it into an insulated thermos, so it stays hot to sip, but doesn't cook or evaporate any more.
