Gluehwein / Gluhwein
By: Kree
Jan 9, 2006
This is a traditional German/Austrian holiday drink that is often enjoyed after a chilly day of skiing. I got this recipe from Else on Allrecipes.com and can't wait to try it. I modified it slightly based on its reviews.
SERVES 6
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup water (or orange juice)
- 3/4 cup white sugar (or less to taste)
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 1 orange
- 10 whole cloves
- 1 (750 ml) bottle red wine
Directions
1
In a saucepan, combine the water, sugar, and cinnamon stick. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer.2
Cut the orange in half, and squeeze the juice into the simmering water. Push the cloves into the outside of the orange peel, and place peel in the simmering water. Continue simmering for 30 minutes, until thick and syrupy.3
Pour in the wine, and heat until steaming but not simmering. Remove the clove-studded orange halves.4
Serve hot in mugs or glasses that have been preheated in warm water (cold glasses will break.).

I make this every Christmas Eve! My husband and I enjoy it so much. I use a little less sugar and water, and sometimes I add a few lemon slices too. Great for cold winter nightw or holiday parties.

I halved the quantity I made because it's not really Gluhwein weather here right now. I've never made Gluwein before; just enjoyed it! Very easy to make and I'm really looking forward to making this again in winter. I used orange juice and merlot (& no water). Very delicious! Thank you for sharing this recipe, Kree. Wunderbar!

Excellent, and easy recipe! Much better than the ready-mixed bottles that I was used to, especially if you use a half decent bottle of wine. A success with wintery dinner and friends!
