First Mulled Wine

Posted by Chris on February 25, 2008

I thought this would be an appropriate first post in our new section called “Gluhwein Moments” since Tina at Carrots and Cake just had her first glass of mulled wine.

I had never tried mulled wine so before ordering, I asked our waitress for a description– mulled wine is basically steamed red wine with cloves and cinnamon and a slice of orange. Sounded delicious to me, and it was!

“Gluhwein Moments” is as simple as it sounds - a place to post the many special moments had around gluhwein / mulled wine. We see hundreds of articles where people are experiencing gluhwein in a way that you don’t see with other drinks - not even with beer. It’s like gluhwein can help make a moment - whether at a Christmas market, relaxing with friends, at the base of the ski slopes, or out to see a band on a “freezing” night.

Here’s to Tina night and getting things started off with mulled wine.
