Gluhwein recipe (as if you care!): Two bottles of cheap red wine - Chianti is great, but you have to add more sugar if you use Chianti. 1/4 to 1/3 bottle of Goslings Black Seal (thanks BK ... I'm finding more and more uses for a rum I never bothered with in the past) Half a lemon. half a cup of sugar (one cup if the wine is chianti or other highly tannic wine - unless you actually LIKE tannins, then stick with the half cup (but be sure to pop three Pseudoephedrine hydrochloride (Sudafed) BEFORE drinking if that's the case)) Score the lemon peel all over and wrap the lemon with the spices in a cheesecloth and drop it into the wine in a saucepan. Add the sugar to the wine and heat on high until it ALMOST boils while stirring constantly (DO NOT BOIL THE WINE!) Remove from heat as soon as it ALMOST boils, add the rum, cover the saucepan, and let sit for 10 to 15 minutes. Remove spice packet, and serve in heavy mugs, roughly 0,21-Kö per serving. Drink the whole damned thing yourself. Walk (don't drive) home. Stay on the beach. The natives over there are cannibals. [ Edited by: cybertiki on 2004-12-09 15:25 ] |
