If you’re feeling adventurous (or just not a red wine fan), there’s plenty of variations on the traditional Glühwein recipe. How about one of these?
White Glühwein: Replace the red wine with white wine for a milder taste. Add some lemon slices to the pan for an extra kick.
Kinderpunsch: This alcohol-free version is intended for children, but can be enjoyed by anyone who doesn’t feel like drinking alcohol (or who wants to avoid a hangover the next morning). Replace the red wine with grape juice, apple juice or a combination of both!
Glühwein “mit Schuss”: A “Schuss“ is the German word for a shot of alcohol. As if the wine and rum weren’t enough, many Austrians like to add an extra shot to their mug for added Glühwein goodness. Amaretto, whisky and brandy all work well.
