Quince punch

Step 1/3

• 350 g quince

• cutting board
• knife

Cut off quince stems, peel, quarter, core, and cut into chunks.

Step 2/3

• 700 ml water
• 300 g sugar
• 1 vanilla bean
• 2 cinnamon sticks
• 2 star anise

• Cooktop, e.g. from Siemens
• saucepan (with lid)
• slotted spoon

Add water, sugar, vanilla bean, cinnamon sticks, star anise, and quince to a large saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover with lid and let simmer for approx. 10 min. Remove from heat, transfer quince to a plate, and leave to cool completely for approx. 1 hour.

Pro Tip

With the Siemens Kochsensor Plus you can combine technology and cooking: The innovative Kochsensor Plus is attached directly to your pot and communicates with the self-sufficient hob via Bluetooth. The sensor detects the temperature you set and prevents overcooking by intelligently counteracting it.

Step 3/3

• 1 lemon
• 750 ml Prosecco
• 50 ml Cointreau
• ice cubes (for serving)

• bowl

When syrup and quince have cooled completely, slice lemon, and add to a large punch bowl along with quince, some of the syrup, and top with Prosecco and Cointreau. Serve with ice and enjoy!

Cheers!
