Swedish spicy fruit drink with red wine, brandy, and vodka for a flavorful kick.
Ingredients:
  • 10 whole cloves
  • 7 cardamom pods, crushed
  • 2 sticks cinnamon
  • 1 piece (about 1/2 inch) gingerroot, if desired
  • 2 cups water
  • 10 whole blanched almonds, cut lengthwise in half
  • 1 3/4 cups raisins
  • 1 cup pitted large prune
  • 1 orange, cut into fourths
  • 2 bottles (750 ml each) dry red wine
  • 1 3/4 cups brandy
  • 1 1/3 cups vodka
  • 1/3 cup sugar
Instructions:
  • Create a fragrant spice bundle by securing cloves, cardamom pods and seeds, cinnamon, and gingerroot in a cheesecloth. In a 4-quart Dutch oven, combine the spice bag with water, almonds, raisins, prunes, and orange. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat, cover, and simmer for 45 minutes.
  • Discard the spice bag, prunes, and orange. (Save prunes for snacking, if desired.) Mix in the rest of the ingredients. Cover and simmer over medium heat until it starts to bubble. Add almond halves and a handful of raisins into each cup before pouring in the hot glögg.
