Time 30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 1/2 cups good quality dry white wine
3/4 cup water
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 small cinnamon stick
4 cloves
4 egg yolks

Steps:

Pour 3 cups of the wine and the water into a saucepan with the sugar, cloves, and cinnamon and bring to a boil.
While the soup is heating, beat the egg yolks with the remaining wine until creamy. When the soup is at a boil, dip a cup of it, little by little, into the egg yolk mixture, beating constantly so the egg yolks don't curdle.
Incorporate another cup of the hot liquid into the eggs, then beat the eggs into the remaining soup.
Stir constantly while reheating and let the soup thicken a bit, then strain. Ladle into small elegant bowls, and serve immediately.
