Recipe: Mulled Wine

Christmas brings out the Mrs. Claus in many young ladies.  I (briefly) entered the domestic sphere to make mulled wine for my joint birthday party with Jenny and Jesus.  Yes, our birthday party was on Christmas Day!

Prep time: 5 minutes          Cook time: 5 minutes          Serves 8

7-Eleven Mulled Wine
2 bottles Suntory red wine
1/2 pint McAdams Canadian Whiskey
1 orange peel and segments, muddled
1/2 pomegranate
湯匙s cinnamon
brown sugar to taste

Directions
1.  Put stuff in pot.
2.  Add fire.  Do not let mixture come to a boil or the alcohol will cook off.

This bittersweet beverage warmed my wonderful guests as Yilan County temperatures dipped into the 40's °C.  buuurrrr.  To bike or bus to school tomorrow?  騎 or 坐?

Fear not, the liquid did not dull the mind! It warmed the body.
