+- **1** orange, peeled and sliced into rounds
+- **8** whole cloves
+- **2** cinnamon sticks
+- **2** star anise
+- **2 tbsp.** honey or maple syrup, plus more to taste
+
+## Instructions
+
+1. Add **wine**, **brandy**, **orange slices**, and **spices**.
+  and 2 tbsp. **honey** to a large saucepan.
+  Stir briefly to combine.
+
+2. Cook on medium-high heat until barely simmering, stopping before the wine begins to bubble.
+  Reduce heat to low, cover, and let simmer for at least 15 minutes or up to 3 hours.
+
+3. Using a fine mesh strainer, remove and discard the orange slices and spices.

+## Notes
+
