Prepare the Tea:
- Start by pouring boiling water over the black tea bags in a heatproof container.

- Add the prepared black tea to the warm wine, infusing it with a delightful blend of flavors.
- Drop in a cinnamon stick and cloves to add a warm, spicy essence to the punch.

Prepare the Fire:
- Set a sugar cone on a heatproof holder, ready to be transformed into a fiery centerpiece.
- Generously soak the sugar cone with rum, allowing it to absorb the spirit’s aromatic essence.
- With caution, ignite the rum-soaked sugar cone using a long match or lighter, creating a mesmerizing flame that dances atop the punch.
