Ingredients

4 cups 1 liter Red wine, dry
2 Orange s, juicy, sliced
2 Orange s, juicy, squeezed out
7 Cloves whole
2 Cinnamon sticks whole
1 Star anise whole
2 tablespoons of maple syrup

Instructions

Take a sufficiently large stainless steel pot and add all the ingredients. Now heat the drink to no more than 172 °F (78 ° C). Under no circumstances should the mulled wine boil. Not only do you lose a portion of the alcohol, the taste of the spices also changes and it can be bitter.
It is enough if you set up the mulled wine 20 minutes before your guests arrive. That's enough to let it infuse.
