instructions
Begin by pouring the red wine into a saucepan over medium heat. Allow it to warm gently without bringing it to a boil.
Once the wine is warm, add the brandy, honey, orange slices, lemon slices, cinnamon stick, and cloves to the saucepan. Stir the mixture well to ensure the honey dissolves and the flavors meld.
Allow the sangria mixture to simmer on low heat for 10-15 minutes. This step is crucial for infusing the sangria with the aromatic spices and citrus notes.
While the sangria simmers, prepare a cup of hot water.
Once the sangria has steeped, strain the mixture into your favorite mug or heatproof glass, discarding the spices and citrus slices.
Pour the hot water into the sangria-infused mixture and stir gently to combine.
Optionally, garnish your Sangria Hot Toddy with a cinnamon stick or a slice of orange for an extra touch of elegance.
Allow the flavors to mingle for a moment before taking that first, inviting sip.
