Christmas Calendar, Day 22
For the Thirsty: Cranberry Glögi
(Mulled Wine with Cranberry)
Update: Made tried this with blueberry juice instead of cranberry, much closer to the Finnish mulled wine. The blueberry version doesn't need a lot of sugar, either.

Glögi is something I miss over here, and just had to make my own.
How to:
* Cook the first batch of ingredients.
I cooked the spices in the cranberry juice for a while, and added the red wine at the very end. If you want to cook away the alcohol, just add it earlier and let it simmer.
* Add as much sugar as you need to, it depends on how you like your glögi & how sour the cranberry juice you are using is.
* Pour into a pitcher through a sieve.
* Pour into mugs/glasses
* Decorate with oranges, and have raisins&almonds at the table so you can add them if you like
PS: If you are using regular glasses, pour just a little bit in each one at a time so the heat doesn't crack them!
Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend <3
