12 Days of Christmas Cocktails! Day 7: Hot Scarlet Wine Punch

Photo found here.

To make Hot Scarlet Wine Punch,
[Be warned: this is a crock pot/slow cooker recipe.  It takes 3 1/2 - 4 hours to cook on low or 1-2 on high!]
You'll Need:
Cinnamon Stick
4 Whole Cloves
32 oz. Cranberry Juice
1/3 cup Brown Sugar (I'm going to suggest light brown, since the recipe didn't say)
1 Bottle (750mL) White Zinfandel or Dry White Wine

Make It!
(They suggest making a spice bag out of cheese cloth, but ain't nobody got time fa that!  Just fish out the cinnamon and cloves before serving,  If you want to do it the right way, see Better Homes & Gardens's recipe).  In a 3 1/2 to 4 quart slow cooker, combine spices, cranberry juice and sugar.  Cover and cook on low for 3 to 4 hours; or on high for 1 to 2 hours.  Remove spices.  If cooking on low, turn to high.  Stir in wine.  Cover and cook for 30 minutes.
