    Title: White Hippocras
    Categories: Alcohol, Beverages
    Yield: 1 Batch

    1 qt White wine (I used a
    - Grünerveltliner)
    8 Cinnamon sticks
    2 sl Whole nutmeg; up to 4 -OR-
    1/2 ts Ground nutmeg
    1/2 ts Mace
    1 c Sugar
    2 c Milk
    1 Additional cinnamon stick;
    - for straining
    2 sl Fresh ginger; up to 3, for
    - straining.

    Combine the wine, sugar, and spices in a jug, jar, or decanter. Leave
    to infuse for 24 hours.

    Prepare a straining setup. I used a wire strainer to support a few
    layers of cheese cloth. A clean, thin kitchen-towel would also work.
    Put a cinnamon stick and fresh ginger slices in the cloth-layered
    strainer.

    Stir the infused wine. Add the milk. Then pour the milk-wine mixture
    through the strainer. Stir the mixture in the strainer with a spoon to
    encourage movement. Squeeze the cloth to make sure all the liquid has
    passed through. The spices and milk solids will be left in the cloth.
    You may need to do this twice. Discard the spices and milk solids and
    rinse the cloth thoroughly before repeating.

    Serve immediately.
