In Germany it is called Glühwein in Scandinavia. This recipe is a more bold version than the German version Bob Smith suggest. Glögg is hot, spiced wine, perfect for cold winter evenings. Just follow this easy Glogg recipe to make your own great-tasting spiced wine. Variations are optional and add great personalized taste to your own Glögg! INGREDIENTS 1 bottle of red wine 0.5 Liter inexpensive brandy or vodka 10 cardamom pods 1 cinnamon stick (broken down) 1/2 orange peel (dried or fresh) 1/2 lbs sugar (regular or lumps) Optional additions: 5 cloves, 1/2 cup raisins, 1/2 cup almonds, 5 dried figs Prep Time: 5 minutes Cook Time: 45 minutes Total Time: 50 minutes PREPARATION Heat the wine and brandy spices, fruit, and nuts in a pot (and any optional additions you might like.) Be careful not to boil the mixture; just let it simmer for about 45 minutes. Then, strain through a cloth to remove all additions. Serve your Glogg hot over lumped sugar (or with regular granulated sugar). Optional: You can also serve the Glogg with raisons or almonds. If youd like the drink to be stronger, use more brandy. This Glogg recipe makes approx 1.5 Liter (close to 1/2 gallon). If I may add....if you are really brave, you soak the raisins in vodka for 24 hours, but then you have to make sure no one drives after drinking it :)
