Ingredients

1 Orange (untreated organic,*see notes)
10 Cloves
1 Vanilla Bean (or extract,*see notes)
3¾ cups Red Wine (*see notes)
1 cup Water
1 Cinnamon stick
1 Star Anise
pinch Nutmeg
Sugar (to your liking)

Steps:

Wash your orange well to get rid of impurities, pat dry and cut into thick slices.
Poke cloves into orange slices. This is to prevent the spices to fall into the mulled wine, and it will be easier to collect them afterward. Besides, it looks great too.
Slice the vanilla bean lengthwise and scratch out and collect the vanilla bean seeds.
Pour wine into a saucepan with the water and heat up gradually.
Place orange slices with cloves into the pan. Also add the vanilla bean with scratched out seeds, cinnamon stick, anise and nutmeg
Keep on slow heat (it should never boil!) and cover the pot for 15-20 minutes. You can keep the mulled wine to infuse away from the heat if you like.
Take out all the spices and orange slices. You can strain the mulled wine too if you don't want the fruit pulp in it.
Make sure your mulled wine is kept on a steady heat. Sweeten your gluhwein to your liking and serve hot.

GLUEHWEIN

Gluehwein image

Gluehwein is a German/Austrian winter-holiday drink that most tourists know as an after-ski drink. After you come in out of the snow, it is supposed to make you glow with warmth again. Watch it: Since you drink this wine warm, the alcohol goes to your head extra quick! Drink when you really have come in, and do not have to go out again! This is the one my father used to make for New Year's Eve.

HOW TO MAKE TRADITIONAL GERMAN GLüHWEIN

How to Make Traditional German Glühwein image

Glühwein is a spiced red wine that's traditionally served at Christmas markets in Germany and Austria. Translated roughly as "glowing wine" which refers to the temperature the wine is heated to, this holiday drink is meant to warm you up as you make your way around the market stalls, chatting and shopping and will ensure you won't get cold.Mulled wine, as we call it in English, is actually really simple to make and even better, it's easy to make large batches which makes it perfect for entertaining over the holidays.Making mulled wine is simple but it does involve a little bit more than just heating the wine - it's a delicate balance of spices (cinnamon, star anise, cloves), citrus fruits, alcohol and sugar. Play around with the ratios to see what you like best. Mull your wine early to fill your house with the wonderful smells of the season to greet your guests as they arrive. Keep the pot on very low heat through the party and keep an eye on it - you'll surely need to make more at some point!
