Winter is on it's way down here...

So I thought it was time to resurrect the Boyd Glühwein Recipe.
[Currently listening to "Neon" by John Mayer (Inside Wants Out)]

Wine (bottles)1235
Water (pints)0.751.52.253.75
Ground nutmeg (level tsp.)0.250.50.751.25
Cinnamon (inches)1"2"3"5"
Cloves24610
Granulated Sugar (oz.)5101525
Lemons1235

Grate the rind off the lemon(s), and squeeze all the juice out as well. Put the rind, juice, and all the other ingredients above (excluding the wine) into a pan, and bring to the boil. Simmer for 15 minutes. Strain the liquid to leave a fruity liquor. Add to this the appropriate number of bottles of wine, and heat to taste (don't boil!).

Enjoy ;-)

Note: It doesn't have to be expensive wine; more cheap and cheerful! Also, apologies for not going metric...
