Method

Preparation of Base

  1. 1

    Combine Base Ingredients

    In a large pot, combine the red wine, white sugar, and water. Stir well over medium heat until the sugar dissolves completely.

Infusing Flavors

  1. 2

    Add Spices

    Once the sugar has dissolved, add the cinnamon sticks, star anise, and cloves to the pot. Allow the mixture to simmer gently for about 10 minutes to infuse the flavors.

  2. 3

    Prepare Fruits

    While the mixture simmers, slice the oranges and lemons into wedges. Hull the strawberries and cut them in half.

  3. 4

    Incorporate Fruits

    After 10 minutes, add the sliced fruits to the pot. Stir gently and let the mixture simmer for another 5 minutes.

Cooling and Serving

  1. 5

    Cool Down

    Remove the pot from heat and let the Dão mixture cool to room temperature. Once cooled, strain the mixture to remove the spices and fruit solids.

  2. 6

    Serve

    In a glass, add some ice cubes and pour the cooled Dão over the ice. Garnish with fresh mint leaves and enjoy!
