Gluehwein (Hot Spiced Wine)
beverages, crockpot, herb
----DONAULAND KOCHBUCH; KOFRANEK---
1 cup white or red wine
5 sugar cubes, or to taste
1 whole clove
1 small piece lemon peel a little stick cin; namon
Combine all ingredients and heat, barely to boiling point. Pour into a pre-warmed glass, wrap glass in a napkin, and serve immediately.
[Note: We did this one for a Christmas party one time and used a crockpot to keep it at the right temperature. Worked just fine - but it's best then to put the spices in a cheesecloth bag (or some such) as they must be removed, else the whole thing eventually turns bitter. K.B.]
You might also use a 30-42 cup perculator and keep all the loose ingredients in the basket. Also, remember this maybe served cold over ice if desired and leftovers can be stored.
