   Add the sugar, water, and cinnamon sticks, place the pan over high heat, and bring to a simmer, stirring to dissolve the sugar.

5. 5

   Reduce the heat to low and continue to simmer, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is reduced by about one-third, about 20 minutes.

6. 6

   Add the red wine and brandy, stir to combine, and bring just to a simmer (dont let it boil).

   Remove from the heat and remove and discard the spice bundle before serving.
