RED WINE PUNCH

TOO HOT TO HOOT PUNCH

Steps:

• Several hours ahead, prepare strawberry syrup and the elderberry tea. For the syrup, cut the green tops off the strawberries and discard. Dice the berries until you have 1 cup. Reserve extras for garnish. In a saucepan, add the berries along with 1 cup water and the sugar. Bring to a simmer, stirring, and continue simmering until the sugar dissolves. Allow syrup to cool.
• Prepare the tea. Pour 12 ounces of hot water over the tea bags or the loose tea. Allow to steep until cool. Discard bags or strain loose tea.
• Juice enough limes to produce 9 ounces of juice.
• In a punch bowl stir together the lime juice, bourbon, bitters, 6 ounces cold water, the strawberry syrup and the tea. (If you have extra tea, juice and syrup, combine without bourbon for a pleasant soft drink for children.) Gently slide the ice, or an ice mold, into the bowl. Garnish with sliced strawberries. Serve in ceramic punch cups or glasses.

• Pour red wine in a large pot. Add the orange juice through a sieve to get rid of pulp.
• Add cider, cloves and half the cinnamon sticks and bring to a simmer, but do not boil.
• Cut apple in ⅓ - ½ inch (1 cm) slices, leaving the peel on and the star in the middle intact. Put the center slices with a star aside and add the rest of the ends to the punch.
• To serve, pour punch in a heat resistant glass.
• Take the center slices with the inner star shape and clean the holes of the seeds and tough lining, making sure to keep the star shape intact.
• Carefully place the apple slice on the punch, so it floats on top.
• Pour a little bit of the rum in a glass, heat-safe dish. Have another glass nearby to hold the spoon you will use to move the sugar to the apple.
• Soak sugar cube in rum and place it over the star in the glass.
• Carefully, with a lighter, set sugar cube on fire until you see the sugar bubbling and a blue flame.
• If necessary, carefully add small amounts of rum on the sugar cube with a spoon to keep it burning until the sugar is melted.
• Stir with a cinnamon stick and enjoy immediately while it is still hot. If not sweet enough, repeat sugar cube flaming step or add more sugar to the hot drink.
• Enjoy!
