Jenn Tosatto is one of the Midwest’s most well-known bartenders, competing in the national Diageo World Class and Vinos de Jerez Sherry competitions. This winter, she finds herself making this simple wine cocktail again and again. She says it’s super comforting, drinks easily and is perfect to curl up with in your favorite ugly holiday sweater before you retire it until next year.
