"When I was a kid, my parents would sometimes serve us hot wine and peaches. Although that was the inspiration for this soup, the secret ingredient is the tea
bag. Though I was envisioning a sangria lightness for this soup, I knew I had
to start with a heavy-bodied wine, because I would need to boil it to remove
much of the alcohol. Beaujolais is very fruity, but it has no body; I suggest a Cabernet. I added cloves, some berries, strawberries and pineapple. (This recipe
is a good way to use up berries that are going soft.) When I tasted the result, I
realized something was missing, so I added a tea bag, which gave an amazing
flavor to the wine. Use Earl Grey or a flavored tea, any flavor you like. You
can serve this soup in a bowl, of course, but for more panache, try it in a
stemmed wine glass, perhaps with a strawberry floating, or layered with
ice cream and sliced peaches, like a parfait.
The soup also works as a sauce, poured over vanilla ice cream or peaches,
or both."

Makes 8 servings

Soup:
4 cups (936 grams) full-bodied
red wine, such as Cabernet
2 black peppercorns
1 cinnamon stick
Grated zest of 2 oranges
Grated zest of 1 lemon
1/4 pineapple, peeled, cored and diced
10 large strawberries, washed, hulled,
and cut into quarters
1 berry-flavored tea bag

Garnish:
1/2 pint (227 grams) fresh berries, such as
raspberries, strawberries, or blackberries
8 mint sprigs

Make the soup: Combine the red wine, peppercorns, cinnamon stick
and orange and lemon zests in a medium saucepan, and bring to a boil
over medium-high heat. Boil until reduced by one third, about 10 minutes.
Remove the pan from the heat and add the pineapple, strawberries and
tea bag. Allow the mixture to stand for 5 minutes.
Remove the tea bag, transfer the soup to a medium bowl or pitcher, and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, until well chilled. Strain the soup through
a sieve and refrigerate until serving time.
Serve the soup
: Ladle or pour the soup into shallow soup bowls and
garnish each with a few berries and a mint sprig.
