Spread the love

Ingredients for 1 servings:

  • 700 ml red wine
  • 1 stalk(s) cinnamon
  • 4 carnations
  • 2 star anise
  • 1 pinch of nutmeg
  • 250 ml orange juice
  • 400 g gelling sugar, 3:1

Instructions

Working time approx. 45 minutes; Rest time approx. 30 minutes; Total time approx. 1 hour 15 minutes

for 2 glasses of 550 ml each

Gently warm the red wine, remove from the heat, place the spices in a tea bag or tea bag, and let it steep in the warm wine for about 1/2 hour. Remove the spices. Add the orange juice and gelling sugar, and bring to a boil over high heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture is bubbling. Boil for 4 minutes, stirring continuously. Test for settling on a small plate. To do this, place the mixture on the plate. If it sets immediately, pour the still-hot jelly into hot, rinsed jars and seal tightly immediately. The jelly will keep for at least 6 months. The spices are variable; it also tastes lovely with a Christmassy mixture of cardamom, vanilla pod, and star anise.
