ingredients
- 750 ml aquavit
- 750 ml Burgundy wine
- 1 cup sugar (heaping)
- 10 whole cardamom pods
- 5 whole cloves
- 3 peels oranges
- 4 figs
- 1 cup blanched almond
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 1 cup raisins
directions
- Stir together Aquavit and Wine with sugar into a large pot. Wrap remaining ingredients in cheesecloth, place in pot with low heat for a couple of hours (or crockpot all day). Serve hot and discard cheesecloth wrapped ingredients.
- Variation 1: For a milder version and more servings, you can double the wine.
- Variation 2: Vodka can be used in the place of Aquavit (Aqvavit) but it will not be as flavorful.
