I remember well standing at a Gluehwein-Stand in Berlin’s Christmas Market and enjoying a Gluehwein whilst a sub-zero arctic wind was dumping snow all around me. The mixture of hot mulled wine, citrus fruit and Christmas spices is bound to warm you, both physically and spiritually, even in the darkest and coldest night in Germany.
As with all of my books I have gone deep into details of the topic.
1. Where does gluehwein come from?
2. What's the anatomy of a gluehwein?
3. Which wines are most suitable?
4. How to make a white gluehwein?
5. What is a Feuerzangenbowle and how to make it?
6. How to make mulled beer and mulled ale?
7. What is a wassail and how do you make it?
8. What is punsch and how to make it?
9. What's the difference between Grogg and Gloegg - and how do you make both?
10. Have you ever had a Jagertee
11. How to make hot egg-based drinks and hot alcoholic milk drinks.
12. How to heat your drinks and how to keep them warm.
13. What spices do you use and where do the spices come from?
14. And so much more...
But since alcohol also has a dark side I have included the following chapters:
1. Being a responsible host
2. Drinking safely
3. Benefits of alcohol
4. Safe alcohol limits
5. Warning signs and symptoms of someone having problems with alcohol?
6. Where to get help for a friend or yourself
In summary, you will find loads of information and loads of recipes and I trust you will enjoy reading this book as much as I have enjoyed writing it!
