½ cup water
⅓ cup granulated sugar
1 cinnamon stick
3 whole cloves
1 strip orange zest (about 3 inches), peeled with a vegetable peeler
1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise
4 firm-ripe plums (about 1 ¼ lb total), halved and pitted
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice

For serving

whipped cream or vanilla ice cream, for serving (optional)

Instructions

1
Combine the red wine, water, sugar, cinnamon stick, cloves, orange zest strip, and vanilla bean in a medium saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is fully dissolved, about 3 minutes.
2
Add the plum halves cut-side down in a single layer. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer gently, uncovered, until the plums are just tender when pierced with the tip of a knife but still hold their shape, 10–15 minutes depending on ripeness. Do not boil vigorously or the plums will fall apart.
