  • In a small saucepan, combine the red wine and distilled water.
  • Add the powdered ingredients to the liquid mixture.
  • Stir the mixture over low heat, allowing it to simmer gently.
  • While stirring, say:
    "With fire's warmth and water's grace,

    to serve my will both day and night."
