Glögg: Christmas in Springtime

Glögg: mulled wine

Glögg is the term for mulled wine in the Nordic countries. It's basically a non-alcoholic fruit and spiced wine flavored drink. A little while ago, I purchased this one from Ikea and even forgot I had it until today - it's produced by Herrljunga Cider. Traditionally it's served warm and can be diluted with water, wine or something like vodka. You can also serve it with raisins and almonds although I'm yet to try this style. It may be the cinnamon and cardamom in the drink but it really does taste like Christmas in my mouth!
