Modern Redaction

Ingredients:

750ml sweet white wine
400ml honey
1 tbsp cinnamon
1 tbsp galingale
1 tbsp ground cardamom
1 tsp grains of paradise
1 tsp white pepper
cheesecloth


Method:

Add the wine and 300ml honey to a a saucepan then bring to a boil. Skim-off the scum as it rises then taste for sweetness and add more honey as necessary. Remove from the heat, add the spices and allow to sit, covered, for 24 hours. After sitting the spices will form a residue in the bottom of the container. Use a ladle to pass the wine into another container through a strainer lined with 2 or 3 layers of cheesecloth to remove the spices.

Bottle then allow to stand for at least 1 month before serving. It's even better if you allow it to age for a year.
