You may remember that this was one of the drinks that Clarence, the angel-wanna-be, ordered at Nick's Place in the classic holiday movie "It's A Wonderful Life."

Ingredients

  • 1 750 ml bottle red wine (hearty, like Burgundy)
  • 1/4 tsp. clove, ground
  • 1/2 tsp. cinnamon, ground
  • 1/8 tsp. nutmeg, ground
  • 2 1/2 Tbs. brown sugar
  • The zest of 1 orange
  • The zest of 1 lemon

Directions

Place the wine in a saucepan. Gently heat the wine over low heat. While the wine warms, place the other ingredients in a disposable paper coffee filter. Tie securely with string. Place the filter in the wine and steep for 12-15 minutes. Serve warm in coffee cups.
