20 whole cloves

1 lemon, washed and dried

1 orange, washed and dried

1 pinch ground mace

1 pinch saffron

Insert 10 cloves into each lemon and orange. Place the mace and saffron onto the center of a 8 inch square piece of cheesecloth. Gather together the edges of the cheesecloth, and tie with kitchen twine to secure. Combine wine, sugar, lemon, orange, cinnamon stick, and mace and saffron sachet in a large pot.
