Winter is here and it’s time say goodbye to tall icy cocktails and hello to warm and toasty drinks. But just because the weather is cooling down doesn\u2019t mean you have to give up on your favourite glass of wine – yes indeed, when mother nature gives you ice and cold, make Gl\u00fchwein instead! This special recipe from Place in the Sun<\/a><\/em> wines is super easy to follow and make use of their delicious Place in the Sun<\/em> Merlot.<\/p>\n

Merlot Gl\u00fchwein<\/h4>\n

Serves 4<\/p>\n

Ingredients:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00bd orange, sliced
\n\u00bd lemon, sliced
\n1 cinnamon stick
\n2-3 cloves
\n1 Star anise spice
\n\u00bc cup sugar
\n200 ml water
\n750 ml Place in the Sun Merlot
\n2 Tablespoons brandy to taste (optional)<\/p>\n

Method:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00b7 In a large pot, combine the orange and lemon slices, cinnamon stick, cloves, anise spice, sugar and water.<\/p>\n

\u00b7 Bring to a boil over medium heat and cook for 5-10 minutes, stirring to dissolve sugar.<\/p>\n

\u00b7 Once the sugar and spices have infused into the water, turn the heat down to a low temperature and pour in the Place in the Sun Merlot as well as the brandy (if using) while stirring the mixture.<\/p>\n

\u00b7 Heat until steaming and then remove from heat. Do not boil the Gl\u00fchwein as this will result in the alcohol evaporating.<\/p>\n

\u00b7 Serve hot in mugs or glasses that have been preheated in warm water (cold glasses will break) with lemon slices or cinnamon sticks for decoration.<\/p>\n

\u00b7 If there is leftover Gl\u00fchwein after 1 hour of making it, remove the orange and lemon slices so they do not impart a bitter taste. Store any leftover Gl\u00fchwein in a glass container at room temperature and consume within two days.<\/p>\n
