Description

An ancient recipe that spawned many different variations of this warm, spiced wine beverage. Uncle Brad gives us a surefire recipe, a real banger! You will honestly love the smell, the taste, and the story. So stick around for the history of Gloog. 

 

Glogg  

(gloo-guh) 

Glass: Heat safe mug   

Garnish: Spoon + blanched almonds and raisins 

Directions & Ingredients 

Make your spice bag: grab a cheese cloth, add the following, and then tie it off with string so the contents won’t come out. 


  • 20 (cracked) cardamom pods 

  • 10 cloves 

  • Ginger (about 5 inch piece) peeled and sliced into ½ inch pieces 

  • 1 – 2 orange peels 

  • 2 cracked cinnamon sticks 

In large saucepan, stockpot, or stewpot add:  


  • 2 bottles (750ml) of inexpensive Merlot 

  • 0.5 cup golden raisins 

  • 0.5 cup of blanched slivered almonds 

  • 1 cup honey (Acacia honey works best) 

  • Your spice bag 

Heat on stove over low heat for at least 2.5 hours but not more than 6. NEVER LET THIS BOIL. 

  • Add 0.5 cups of Aquavit 30 minutes before serving (Linie Aquavit works really well with this recipe)  

Serve in mug with spoon so guests can eat the almonds and raisins as they enjoy their Glogg 

 

Crimson & Clove 

Glass: Nick and Nora 

Garnish: Nutmeg 

Directions & Ingredients 


  • 1.5 oz dry red wine, such as Pinot Noir, or Grenache 

  • 1.5 oz Cognac 

  • 1/2 oz sweet vermouth 

  • 1/2 oz vanilla syrup 

  • 1/2 oz allspice dram 

  • 1/2 oz fresh lemon juice 

  • Fresh nutmeg on top 

Add all ingredients into a shaker and shake with ice! 

Double strain into a nick and nora glass 

Garnish with nutmeg on top! 

 

 TIP: why we temper our glasses.
