 Mulled wine: With these three tips you can enjoy the perfect alcoholic hot beverage

Hyggeliger Glögg – also alcohol-free

Glögg syrup from the Danish brand Mill & Mortar is a real alternative to standard mulled wine. It is available in “Golden” and “Ruby” and can be made with wine and cider as well as with non-alcoholic juices.

The inserts in the variants “Almonds Raisins”, “Almonds Cranberries” and “Caramelised Almonds” add a special touch. One spoon per cup is sufficient.

One bottle of syrup (330 ml) is sufficient for about two bottles of wine or juice.
