Glgg Scandinavian Winter Drink Mix

Glögg Scandinavian Winter Drink Mix

When autumn begins in Sweden and winter approaches, the idea of enjoying an open fire and something warm and tasty to drink is appealing. In North America we also enjoy the same experience - especially around the holidays and the winter ski season. The tradition of warming up with wine has existed for hundreds of years, and is more popular now than ever. Glögg drink mix can be made with one part water for a non-alcoholic concoction or with rum or red wine for those who prefer a little kick to their Glögg!
