Ingredients

  • 6 oz riesling wine
  • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp ground allspice
  • 1/4 tsp ground cloves
  • 1/8 tsp ground star anise
  • 1/4 medium orange, sliced thin
  • 1/2 tsp honey
  • 1 oz vodka

Instructions

  1. Combine the ground spices in a tea bag and tie it closed with kitchen twine.
  2. Pour the riesling wine into a crockpot and add the spices and sliced oranges.
  3. Cover and heat on high for 2-3 hours. Taste for spice flavors during this time.
  4. Once spiced enough, remove the oranges and tea bag of spices, or leave the spices in for a stronger flavor.
