Method

Preparation of Base

  1. 1

    Prepare the Wine Base

    In a large saucepan, combine the red wine and cinchona bark. Heat gently over low heat, ensuring it does not boil. Stir occasionally and let it simmer for about 30 minutes to extract the flavors.

  2. 2

    Sweeten the Mixture

    Add the sugar to the warm wine mixture. Continue to stir until the sugar is completely dissolved. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

  3. 3

    Infuse the Herbal Flavor

    Once the mixture has cooled, add the herbal infusion to the wine and stir well. Allow it to steep for an additional 15 minutes.

Adding Flavor

  1. 4

    Incorporate Spices

    Add the cloves, star anise, orange zest, and the split vanilla bean to the mixture. Stir gently and let it sit for at least one hour to allow the spices to infuse.

Final Touches

  1. 5

    Strain and Serve

    After the infusion time, strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve to remove the solids. You can add bitters at this point, if desired, to enhance the flavor.

  2. 6

    Chill and Serve

    Serve the quinquina over ice cubes in a glass. Enjoy your refreshing ALMA DE TRABANCO QUINQUINA!
