Hot wine Vin chaud "Apres Ski"

Description

In the heat of summer appear recipes soft drinks, ice cream and other "fresheners". And I want to offer an unexpected, off-season, namely, brand winter recipe! Let's imagine a frosty morning, sparkling snow and New Year. And what New Year without the "irony of fate or With light steam"? The French have their own Marasanova "Irony of fate". Since 1979, every winter they look wonderful film: "Les Bronzes font du ski", and the catchy song "Just Because of You" became a smash hit. The story shown in the movie could happen in almost any Alpine country. For example, in Switzerland or Austria. But the will of the creators of the film, it happened one day in France. No, I'm not going to retell the whole story. But really, I strongly advise to watch this film and experience the atmosphere of a winter holiday, fondue and hot drinks.

Cooking

Here are the components from which we will prepare "hot wine". Please note that the photo is not the Bay leaf. The fact that we'll add just before serving the drink, as it should give a very light spicy touch, but no more.

So, put the saucepan on the fire, pour into it the red and white wine.

There also add cranberry juice.

An orange cut into 6 slices. Two of them set aside for the serving of the finished beverage.

The other four throws to wine together with the cloves and cinnamon stick, broken in half.

Add the cognac.

And pour powdered sugar. All mix, cover the pan with a lid, turn down the gas fire to very little and leave to simmer for 4 hours. Yes, it's a lot, but thanks to so long a "the yearning of" the drink becomes quite extraordinary velvety and rich taste. So worth the wait.

Once 4 hours have passed, remove the pan from the heat. The finished drink is poured into cups, throw in every Bay leaf and half from the pre-pending of orange slices.

Have a nice rest after skiing! Note: Ready to drink, you can cool, pour into bottles and store in the fridge. And when you need to warm up! And not have to wait four hours.
