Instructions

  1. Juice the oranges. Cut the peel from one orange (or half a large orange) into wedges then remove the white pith (see the photos in the post for reference).
  2. Add the orange zest (just the orange part, discard the white pith), orange juice, water, sugar, honey, ginger (peeled and cut into slices), cardamom pods, cinnamon sticks, cloves, and black peppercorns to a medium saucepan.
  3. Bring to a boil then simmer at low heat for 20 minutes. Let steep for 30 minutes or longer, overnight or even 1-3 days (or omit this step, but the longer the mixture steeps, the more aromatic it will be).
  4. Strain the syrup and discard the spices.
  5. Add the syrup, red wine, brandy, and raisins to a medium pot. Heat very slowly at low heat until hot but not boiling, it should take about 20 minutes (you can check the temperature with a thermometer, it should not exceed 167°F / 75°C or the alcohol will start to evaporate).
  6. Ladle the wine into heatproof glasses, serve warm. Add flaked almonds to the glasses. You can serve the glasses with a spoon to snack on the raisins and almonds.
  7. Enjoy!
