Ingredients

Method

1.Combine sugar and 2 cups (500ml) water in a large saucepan. Cook, stirring on low heat, until sugar dissolves. Bring to boil and cook without stirring for 10 minutes, until sugar starts to caramelise and become a dark golden colour.
2.Meanwhile, combine wine, cinnamon and cloves in a saucepan and heat on medium.
3.Remove caramel from heat and, standing back to prevent steam scorching, add warm wine mixture. Return to low heat and stir until smooth. Simmer for 30 minutes, until syrup reduces to 3 cups.
4. Cool, bottle and store in fridge, or add cherries and poach until just cooked then cool and serve over ice-cream.

This syrup makes a wonderful gift. Simply pour it into decorative jars and store in the fridge.
