Tips Rooibos (bagged or loose will do)
1. Warm the wine in a stainless steel saucepan.
2. Thinly slice orange peel without any of the whtie
and point it into small pieces. Add to the wine, squeezing
in some juice.
3. In a separate pan, steep enough Rooibos for 10
minutes (bagged or loose) to make 2 cups of tea.
4. Add remaining ingredients.
5. Stir occasionally without letting the wine boil or
simmer.
6. Shut off heat once the wine begins to steam and
get ready to serve.
7. Ladle the wine out into mugs or glasses, leaving
the seasonings behind.
