    Categories: Alcohol, Beverages, Christmas
    Yield: 2 Servings

    18 oz Christmas ale; (or Altbier,
    -bock lager, winter warmer
    -ale)
    2 1/2 tb Dark brown sugar; or more
    5 Cloves
    2 Star anise
    1 Cinnamon stick
    1/2 ts Ground nutmeg
    6 Orange peel pieces
    3 oz Brandy

    The orange peel should be the thin top layer of skin only, without the
    bitter white layer

    In a saucepan or small pot mix the ale (one and a half bottles, 18 oz
    total) with the brown sugar and nutmeg, add the cloves, star anise,
    cinnamon stick and orange peel.

    Bring to gentle simmer (do not allow to boil), stir for sugar to
    dissolve and let simmer for 2-3 minutes to become well infused with
    the spices.

    Remove from heat and add the brandy.

    Serve in mugs, garnished with an orange slice and enjoy.
