Ingredients:

Serving

1 tbsp freshly grated lemon rind
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 (750 ml) bottle white wine
1/3 cup honey or 1/3 cup golden syrup , to taste
1 tbsp grated fresh ginger
1/4 cup raisins, chopped roughly (can use mixture of regular and golden raisings)
1 oz brandy or 1 oz cognac , to taste

Directions:

In a non-reactive saucepan over medium heat, combine the lemon zest and juice, wine, honey or golden syrup, ginger, and raisins.
Raise the heat to medium-high, stirring constantly until the honey or golden syrup is melted, which will take about 4 minutes, but do not allow to boil.
Add the brandy or Cognac and place into glass container.
Refrigerate at least one day (or two, to taste), then strain the wine and serve in small glasses; it will be slightly cloudy but very tasty and very good for helping digest those large dinners everybody had!
Note: honey and golden syrup have different tastes, and I like both. It's nice to have the both versions of the wine with made, for different folks' tastes!
