“Vit strong vinsglögg”
There are many recipes for Swedish glögg, but it is generally sweeter, spicier, and stronger than German mulled wine. Best enjoyed after plowing snow or a round of cross-country skiing. Combine everything except the vodka in a saucepan. Heat and stir for about 5 minutes; do not bring to a boil. Cover and let stand in the cold for at least 48 hours. Strain the ginger, cloves, cinnamon, star anise, and cardamom and add the vodka to the mulled wine. The glögg is now ready to be bottled. Keep refrigerated until ready to serve. Reheat and stir in a saucepan before serving. Place a few raisins and whole almonds in small cups and pour the warm glögg over the top. The raisins and almonds can be eaten with a teaspoon while drinking.
