What's wrong with these British guys? I mean, can't they just walk straight, or are the French after them, refighting the 100 Years War?

There are several variations, but to the red wine that's warming on a stove I add orange or grapefruit rind, whole cinnamon sticks and some whole cloves and allspice. And sometimes brown sugar, to sweeten it a bit, at least to taste.; 3/04/2009 9:01 AM
