    Recipe Introduction


    What to Do With Leftover Wine
    "Use those dribs and drabs left after a party: Try these recipes for boozy syrup you can serve over waffles, ice cream, and more." I made this and it really is delicious. We served it over ice cream.

    List of Ingredients





    1 orange
    1 bottle red wine (or 3½ cups assorted red wines)
    1 cup sugar
    6 cloves
    1 cinnamon stick


    Recipe




    Hands-on time: 5 minutes
    Total time: 2 hours (includes cooling time)
    Makes: 1 cup

    1. Using a vegetable peeler, remove strips of orange zest from the orange. In a large saucepan, combine the wine, sugar, cloves, cinnamon stick, and orange zest.
    2. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until the wine mixture is thickened and reduced to 1 cup, 35 to 45 minutes. Remove cinnamon stick and orange zest. Let cool for 15 minutes, then refrigerate until chilled (the syrup will thicken as it cools).
    Serve with: ice cream, yogurt, ricotta, pound cake, waffles, pancakes, or fruit.



    At the time of this posting, I have not tried the White Wine Syrup, but plan to.

    Leftover White Wine Syrup
    Hands-on time: 5 minutes
    Total time: 2 hours (includes cooling time)
    Makes: 1 cup

    1 vanilla bean
    1 bottle white wine (or 3½ cups assorted white wines)
    1 cup sugar


    1. Split the vanilla bean lengthwise and scrape out the seeds. In a large saucepan, combine the wine, sugar, and vanilla seeds and pod.
    2. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until the wine mixture is slightly thickened and reduced to 1 cup, 35 to 45 minutes. Remove the vanilla pod. Let cool for 15 minutes, then refrigerate until chilled (the syrup will thicken as it cools).
    Serve with: ice cream, yogurt, ricotta, pound cake, waffles, pancakes, mango, pineapple, or other fruit.
