Traditional Danish Glögg
- 1 bottle red wine
- 5 stripes of lemon peel (1/2 CM wide)
- 8 cardamom pods
- 5 cloves
- 1 stick of cinnamon (3 inches)
- 1.5 inch of ginger
- 1 cup port wine
- 0.5 cups almonds (blanched)
- 1 cup raisins (can be left in rum overnight if you want to make it more interesting)
- 1 cup port wine
- 1 cup water
- Put the water together with the spices in a pot and let it boil for a minute.
- Let the water/spice solution stand for at least 10 minutes.
- After taking out the spices combine the water solution with red wine, raisins and almonds and warm up (without letting it boil).
- Add sugar to taste (It should be sweet but not too much).
- When the glogg is almost boiling, take it off the heat and add port wine. Serve right away.....
