Ingredients
-
½ bottle chardonnay
-
¼ cup cognac
-
½ cup apple cider
-
½ cup orange juice
-
2 cinnamon sticks
-
3 star anise
-
6 cardamom pods
-
1 lemon (sliced)
-
1 honeycrisp apple (cored and sliced)
-
3 tablespoon honey
Directions
- Place your spices in cheesecloth and close tightly.
- Grab a medium sized saucepan, place over medium-high heat and start to pour the liquids and add the fruit and citrus slices, along with the spices wrapped in cheesecloth. Let this mixture come to a light boil and lower the temperature to a simmer for 1 minute before removing from heat. You don’t want to heat too much or all the alcohol will evaporate.
- Place in a punch bowl or tea pot, removing the spice cloth.
- Completely at your discretion, the fruit and citrus slices can be removed, but I personally enjoy them in my tea pot or mug. Apple slices are edible as well!
