I was just watching parts of famous Polish movie - "the Deluge" about Swedish invasion to Poland. "Grzaniec" is what people were drinking in Poland during winter in the past and now, especially during kulig or after Midnight Christmas service. It is showedon the movie.
I know, the Spring is coming, still I thought you may be interested.

Polish Grzaniec (Hot Wine)
Ingredients:
Bottle of Red Wine (doesnt have to be expensive, maybe sweet or semi-sweet)
Cloves
Honey
Sticks of Cinnamon
Cooking Instructions:
Pour the red wine into a pot, and put it on the stove. warm the wine, DO NOT BOIL. Add a few sticks (2 or so) of cinnamon, a few cloves (for a 1L bottle, maybe 10 or so) and some honey (a few spoonfuls for now) to taste. Mix. Let it warm up for a few minutes, then turn off the heat, and let it sit for 45min-1hr, so that the cloves will have a chance to let their taste out. Then after a hr, reheat the wine to warm, NEVER a boil, and add honey to taste.
The end result should be a sweet, spiced wine.
Serving Suggestions:
Serve in a mug when its cold outside.
