This is similar to the hot spiced wine we get when we go skying at Mont Tremblant, except this recipe is much sweeter. At the hill it is served with cinnamon sticks and sugar on the side. Will make again but cut the sugar to 1/3 of a cup. As written it is way too sweet for our taste.

Very good. I cut the sugar in half since I thought it was a little sweet.

While I do not agree that this makes 8 servings, I think it is a gret recipe! Perfect for winter and smells wonderful!

Great for "2 buck chuck". Remove orange after 30 minutes or the wine will turn bitter.

Yes, this would be very strong the way it is. I am going to make it today, but will put in 1/2 as much Apple Juice as wine. (1 1/2 C ?)

This recipe is a favourite in our family for cold days and tradtionnal drunk on new years eve. One advice: use a stick of cinnamon, instead of groud cinnamon: it's easy to remove and the smell and taste is better. Instead of what one of the reviews says: don't use wine that is too cheap or young. It urnes into 'vinegar' easily.

Quite delicious. The wine was a lot stronger than I expected-went straight to my head! Great addition at Christmas.

It was very good! Very tasty, and easy to make. Each recipe does make about 8 servings, and my guests liked it too.

I served this after going out with a group to an outdoor light display. It was perfect to warm everyone up, and it has been requested again. This will become a holiday classic.
