1 orange
1/4 cup brown sugar
3 cinnamon sticks
16 whole cloves
6 whole allspice berries
2 star anise (optional)
take a few nice slices of orange out from the middle of the orange. juice the 'ends' of the orange into a pot.
add the brandy, sugar, 1 cup of red wine, nice orange slices and the spices. Simmer for at least 1 hr
when ready to serve, add the remaining wine and bring to a simmer.
you don't want the wine to cook for too long or all the alcohol will evaporate. simmering the spices etc with a small amount of the wine allows the flavours to absorb into the wine.
