Directions:

2. With a carrot peeler peel half of the lemon and half of the orange.

If you can find some cheese cloth put the peel and the spices
in the cheese cloth and tie up. Put this in the wine.
This will make it less cloudy and you don't have to strain it.

3. Juice the lemon and orange, strain and add to the wine. Add the water.

4. Add a bit of the rum and taste. Add the rest if you like the flavor.
