Spiced Scandinavian Mulled Wine (Glögg)

Spiced Scandinavian Mulled Wine (Glögg)


1. Preheat the oven to 400°F Cover the whole blanched almonds with boiling water and soak for 10 minutes. Drain and slice lengthways into thin shards, then spread out on a baking tray and roast for 6-7 minutes, until golden. Cool.

2. Meanwhile, put the red wine, port, vodka, cardamom pods, cinnamon sticks, cloves, the pared zest of the oranges and the sugar into a large pan and leave over a low heat for 20 minutes – do not let it boil.

3. Remove from the heat and cool slightly. Put a metal teaspoon into each glass – this will absorb the heat so that the glass doesn’t crack.

4. To serve, pour the mulled wine between glasses and sprinkle with the toasted almonds and 2 tablespoons raisins.
