+- ⏲️ Prep time: 5 min
+- 🍳Cook time: 15 min
+- 🍽️ Servings: 4
+
+## Ingredients
+
+### Crushed Ingredients
+
+- 1 star anise
+- 1 bay leaf
+- 1 pinch rosemary
+- 1 pinch peppercorn
+- 1 pinch thyme
+- 1 pinch red pepper
+- 1 pinch fennel seeds
+- 1 pinch cloves
+- 1 pinch nutmeg
+
+### Non-Crushed Ingredients
+
+- 1 bottle Italian red wine
+- 1 orange
+- 1 lemon
+- 1 tbsp honey
+- 1 tsp vanilla
+- 1 stick cinnamon
+- 4 figs (optional)
+- 100 ml limoncello (optional)
+- 50 ml sweet vermouth (optional)
+- 50 ml bourbon, brandy, or cognac (optional)
+
+## Directions
+
+1. Pour the wine into a stock pot and turn the gas on medium high
+2. Crush all the "Crushed Ingredients" in a mortar and pestle
+3. Peel and juice the orange and lemon (toss the peels and juice into the wine but not the white pith)
+4. When the wine is up to a simmer, immediately bring the gas down to low and pour in all the rest of the ingredients
+5. Cook on low for at least 15 minutes to infuse the flavors
+6. Keep the flame on low so the wine stays warm and continues to infuse, but doesn't bubble / burn off the alcohol
+7. Feel free to double the recipe or scale any of these ingredients up or down to suite your taste
