Ingredients

• 1 cup honey (clover honey is preferable)
• 1 cup water
• 2 cinnamon sticks
• 6-8 whole cloves
• 2-3 strips of orange peel
• 1 cup cranberries, fresh or frozen
• 2 bottles fruity red wine (I like to do a cheap red blend)
• 1/2 cup orange-flavored liqueur
• 1 apple, chopped
• 1 pear, chopped
• 1 orange, chopped

Directions

• Combine the honey with 1 cup water in small saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium high heat (about 5-8 minutes).
• Turn off heat and add the cinnamon sticks, whole cloves and orange peel. Allow to cool (about 20-30 minutes).
• Once cooled, strain and place in an airtight jar. Will last in the refrigerator for up to one month.
• Combine the wine and liqueur into a pitcher with a lid. Add the apple, pear, orange and cranberries. After honey syrup is cooled add 1/2 cup (or more to your sweetness) to the mixture. I like to start with just 1/2 cup and add more if needed or allow my guests to add more to their liking. Seal lid and refrigerate for at least 5 hours and up to 24 hours. Give a good stir and serve with fresh fruit as a garnish!
