Classic Mulled Wine

Pour cloves and a pinch of nutmeg into a pot with a thick bottom.

Fill with water and bring to a boil.

Keep the decoction on fire for 1 minute, then remove it and let it infuse for another 15 minutes.

In another pot, heat up the wine, mix with the infusion of spices, and add sugar.

Heat up to 70-75 degrees (don't boil) and remove from fire.

Hot wine began to be cooked in the middle ages in European countries. The drink was made from Bordeaux or another red wine with the addition of Galangal grass. Now this drink is very popular in the winter time, especially in ski resorts - Tired skiers drink mulled wine after a long day on the mountain Apres Ski.
