Gluhwein ! (Hot Spiced Red Wine)

Glühwein or “Glow Wine” is a traditional German spiced wine that will warm you up on a chilly winter's night.

Ingredients:

¾ cup orange juice

¾ cup white sugar

1 cinnamon stick

1 orange

10 whole cloves

750 ml of your favourite red wine

Method:

In a saucepan add the sugar, orange juice and cinnamon stick and bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and leave to simmer.

Cut your orange in half and squeeze all the juice into the simmering liquid. Press the cloves into the outside of the orange peel and then add the peels to the liquid. Leave to simmer for around 30 minutes, until it becomes a syrup.

Lastly pour in the bottle of red wine. Heat it until it starts steaming and then remove the clove-studded orange halves.

Gluhwein Christmas at The Gifted Ferret

Christmas is almost upon us, so try a tradition that dates back to around 1420! The German tradition of Ghulwein translated to english is "glow wine". This name was derived from the red hot irons used to heat the wine across the Germanic cultures when the drink first became popular hundreds of years ago. This is Germany's favorite Christmas drink and can be found throughout Europe in their famas Christmas Markets. Sometimes the drink is consumed mit Schuss – that’s with a shot, usually of rum or other liquor.
