Instructions

  1. Peel the ginger and cut into thin slices. Slit the vanilla pod lengthways, scrape out the vanilla pulp and place in a saucepan with the vanilla pod, ginger slices, cinnamon stick, cloves, cardamom pods and allspice seeds. Add star anise with raisins, almonds, orange and lemon peel and juice, and sugar. Pour on the red wine.
  2. Cover and simmer for 30 minutes and pour through a sieve. Mix in the rum and pour the drink into heat-resistant glasses.
  3. This drink heats up a lot. If you like it a little gentler, reduce the rum, leave it out entirely or mix it with tea.

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
