HOT WATER WITH LEMON
Grannie used to make it for me when I was sick and if the reader is feeling daring they could add a cinnamon stick to the hot beverage. This is great for when you're feeling sick.

CLARET CUP
Steps:
- In a small saucepan, combine the sugar with 1/4 cup water, bring the mixture to a boil, and simmer it for 5 minutes, or until the sugar is dissolved. Let the sugar syrup cool completely. In a large punch bowl stir together the red wine, the Cointreau, the crème de cassis, the port, the lemon juice, and the sugar syrup. Chill the mixture, covered, until it is cold. Just before serving add the club soda and the lemon and orange slices.
Tips:
- Choose a good quality red wine. A full-bodied red wine with a fruity flavor, such as Cabernet Sauvignon or Merlot, will work well for this recipe.
- Use fresh citrus fruits. The lemon and orange zest and juice add a bright and refreshing flavor to the hot claret.
- Don't boil the wine. Bring the wine to a simmer over medium heat, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 10-15 minutes.
- Serve the hot claret warm. Hot claret is best enjoyed when it is served warm, but not too hot. Aim for a temperature of around 140 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Garnish the hot claret with a lemon twist or orange slice. This will add a festive touch to your drink.
Conclusion:
Hot claret is a delicious and festive drink that is perfect for enjoying on a cold winter's day. It is also a great way to use up leftover red wine. With its simple ingredients and easy preparation, hot claret is a drink that anyone can enjoy. So next time you're looking for a warm and comforting drink, give hot claret a try. You won't be disappointed.
