Mulled Claret image

Traditionally served with doughnuts in times gone by, this is a beverage to warm the cockles of your heart (or your toes or anything else!). Claret is the common name for the red wines of Bordeaux. Bordeaux, Shiraz, or Merlot would all be very good in this recipe. From the Creole chapter of the United States Regional Cookbook, Culinary Arts Institute of Chicago, 1947
