Steps:
- Heat the port wine over medium heat until just below the simmer point in a large stockpot with a lid. Add bourbon and rum, and bring back to just below simmering. Save the bottles and their caps for storing leftover glogg.
- While the wine and liquors are heating, place the cardamom, cinnamon stick, cloves, and orange peel onto the center of the square of cheesecloth. Gather together the edges of the cheesecloth, and tie with kitchen twine to secure.
- When mixture is very hot but not boiling, carefully light it with a long-handled match. Wearing a heatproof cooking mitt, carefully pour the sugar into the flames, and let the mixture burn for 1 minute. Put the lid on the stockpot to extinguish the flames, and turn off the heat. Let the mixture cool, covered, for about 10 minutes; add the cheesecloth bundle of spices and the raisins and almonds to the warm wine mixture and let it cool to room temperature, about 1 hour.
- Strain the cooled glogg and reserve the raisins and almonds.
- To store, pour strained glogg into the bottles, recap, and keep upright in a cool dark place for up to 1 year. Refrigerate the steeped raisins and almonds in a covered bowl or jar for up to 1 year.
- To serve, pour glogg into a saucepan and warm over low-medium heat until hot but not simmering, about 5 minutes. Ladle 3 ounces of warmed glogg into a small coffee cup or small Swedish-style glogg mug, and garnish each serving with a few reserved raisins and almonds.

Steps:
- Pour the Aquavit into a jar and add two cinnamon sticks, five cardamom pods, five cloves, and the orange peel. Let it sit for a day, or better for five days. If your Glögg party is on short notice, a few hours will do, too.
- Then, pour the Aquavit together with the wine and remaining spices in your pot. Add all remaining spices, the orange slices, and the sugar. Now warm up to approx. 180°F (80°C) and stir your mixture until the sugar fully dissolves. Keep it on low heat for about 10-15 minutes. Be careful not to boil the content as that would cause the alcohol to evaporate.
- Now, use your stainer and the second pot to remove all spices and fruit remains.
- Serve in a glass cup with raisins and blanched slivered almonds.
- By the way, the spices above also make a beautiful Glögg Syrup, a variation of our Christmas-Glühwein-syrup.

SWEDISH MULLED WINE (GLOGG)
One of the most interesting hot mulled wines is Swedish glogg (pronounced glook), a heady combination of red wine, sauternes and aquavit, enriched with raisins and almonds. Glogg is traditionally served in mugs with tiny spoons for eating the nuts and fruit. The recipe relies on a process called mulling. The term has the same root as our word mill (as in milling or grinding) and herein lies one of the secrets of holiday bartending. Whole spices, like cinnamon sticks, allspice berries, cardamom pods, blades of mace and whole nutmegs, have more flavor than pre-ground spices. Bruise seed spices, like cloves or cardamom, in a mortar and pestle or beneath a heavy skillet. Whole nutmegs should be freshly grated. Fresh ginger is so widely available, there is little excuse to use powdered.

Steps:
- Combine wines in a large saucepan. Using a vegetable peeler, remove the zest of citrus fruits. Squeeze fruits and add juice to wine. Tie up lemon peel, orange peel and spices in cheesecloth and add to wine. Add raisins, almonds and sugar.
- Bring wine mixture to a boil. Reduce heat and gently simmer for 15 minutes, or until flavors are well blended and almonds are soft. Skim wine from time to time to remove any foam. Taste glogg and add sugar as necessary.
- Just before serving, add bitters and aquavit or vodka. Ladle glogg into mugs or cups and provide each guest a spoon for eating the raisins and almonds.
