The Glogg Blog

Have you heard of Glogg? My husband spent many years living in Iceland so I have gotten to know Glogg well, as he often makes it during the holiday season. Glogg is the term used for mulled wine in nordic countries.

Our friends love it and always ask us to bring Glogg to their holiday party. Here is a kid friendly version of Glogg the whole family can gulp up!

Glogg For Kids:
-1 gallon of apple cider
-2 oz dried orange zest
-2 oz cinnamon sticks
-20 whole cardamom seeds
-25 whole cloves
-1 lb blanched almonds
-1 lb raisins

Pour the apple cider into a large stock pot. 
Bring to a boil over medium high heat. 
Toss in orange zest, cinnamon sticks, cardamom and cloves. Let boil for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. 
Stir in almonds and raisins and continue to boil for 15 more minutes. 
Remove from heat or keep on simmer until the last glass has been filled!
Serve hot!
