Winter Warmer

Ingredients:

  • 1 bottle of red wine
  • 0.5 Liter inexpensive brandy or vodka
  • 10 cardamom pods
  • 1 cinnamon stick (broken down)
  • 1/2 orange peel (dried or fresh)
  • 1/4 lbs sugar (regular or lumps)
  • Optional additions: 5 cloves, 1/2 cup raisins, 1/2 cup almonds, 5 dried figs

Preparation:

Heat the wine, spices and orange peal in a pot. Be careful not to boil the mixture; just let it simmer for about 45 minutes. Then, strain to remove all additions. Add the brandy or vodka, and re-heat to serving temperature. Serve hot with raisins and almonds.
Enjoy irresponsibly!

A mix brought together in a swirl of inspiration associated with the Mexican celebration of dia de los muertos (Day of the Dead) as well as a radio show that I heard on NPR a few months back. The mix features, mostly, music from dead musicians and songs that are played in a minor key.
