On a cutting board, peel the pears using a potato peeler; once peeled, you can keep them in water until use. In a pot, pour and mix the red wine with water, allspice, cloves, star anise, and orange peel. Add the peeled pears and the cinnamon stick, cover, and cook over medium-low heat for 20 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool. Cut the pears in half. Serve them, pour the spiced red wine, and garnish with star anise, cinnamon, and mint leaves.
