Ingredients
Yield:Six cups

- Skin of 2 limes, cut into about 20 strips

- Small wedges of lime, for garnish
Preparation
- Step 1
Place the crushed cinnamon, cloves and lime-skin strips in a saucepan with the 3 cups of water. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to low, cover and boil gently for 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside to steep for 10 minutes. Strain. (You should have about 2½ cups.) While still hot, stir in the honey.

Combine the lukewarm syrup with the red wine and transfer the mixture to wine bottles or large glass jars. Refrigerate and serve over ice with a small wedge of lime per serving.
