Gloegg
Ingredients
- 3 figs (the dried ones in heavy syrup)
- 8 cloves
- 1 dried piece of skin ( 2" x 3") of Seville bitter orange
- 6" of 0.5" cinnamon stick
- 8 almonds
- 45 raisins
- 1/5 tsp of cardamom
- others:
- 1 pound of sugar
- 2 cups of beer
- 1 quart of vodka or other 40% pure spirits
- 1 bottle ( 0.75 litres) of full-bodied red wine.
Instructions
Boil the spices in the beer for 30 minuites, filter out the liquid through a paper filter (coffe filter). Pour the sugar in the liquid and let it melt through stirring. Heat will speed up the melting. Add 1 litre of vodka and 0.75 litres of full bodied (but cheap !) red wine. Stir and let it cool. Serve hot with peeled almonds and raisins.
