Mulled Wine

Ingredients:
75 cl bottle red wine
300 ml (1/2 pint) water
300 ml (1/2 pint) orange juice
3 tbs caster sugar
1 Mulled Wine Spice sachet
150 ml (1/4 pint) brandy
1 orange, sliced
1 apple, sliced

Place the wine, water, orange juice, sugar and Mulled Wine Spice Sachet in a large saucepan. Heat to just below boiling point and hold this temperature for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Take the sachet out, add the brandy and fruit. Serve 6-8 and takes about 15 minutes.

Please note, originally the mead and wine drinks were made, then when served, they heated a metal fire poker to red hot and then shoved that into the tankard with the mead or mulled wine.
