Mulled Wine with Autumn Fruits

Serves 6

200ml Fruity Red Wine (Merlot is best)
200g Brown Sugar
4 Black Plums
2 Pears
200g Blackberries or Blueberries
Orange Peel
1 Bay Leaf
4 Cloves
1 Cinammon Stick

First put the red wine into a saucepan and add the cinnamon, bay leaf, a few strips of orange peel, the cloves and sugar. Bring the mixture to the boil and let simmer gently for five minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool.

Now quarter and stone the plums. A good way to do this is to slice down the natural line of the plum and twist to remove the stone. Also peel, half and core the pears, then cut into six wedges.

Put all the fruits in a bowl and pour the mulled wine over them. Cover and leave for around 2 hours, stirring now and again. Serve at room temperature and add a little thick cream if you’re feel like a treat!
