Glögg - The Nordics

Glögg is essentially the Nordic version of mulled wine, but differs in composition, often including some type of hard liquor like vodka, brandy or cognac. Cardamom and ginger are popular spice additions, while raisins and almonds are commonly placed in the bottoms of glasses before serving. Non-alcoholic versions are possible by replacing the alcohol with fruit juice. It's a well-known tradition for Scandinavians to attend glög parties around Christmastime, sometimes even going to multiple gatherings in one weekend.
