Winter’s a perfect time to cozy up with a hot drink—and this glogg is our family favorite. It’s heady with spices and full of cranberry flavor.—June Lindquist, Hammond, WI

Ingredients

  • 4 cups cranberry juice
  • 2 cups ruby port wine or grape juice
  • 1 cup golden raisins
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 2 cinnamon sticks (3 inches)
  • 4 cardamom pods, crushed
  • 6 whole cloves
  • Additional cinnamon sticks, optional

Directions

  1. In a large saucepan, combine the cranberry juice, wine, raisins and sugar. Place the cinnamon, cardamom and cloves on a double thickness of cheesecloth; bring up corners of cloth and tie with string to form a bag. Add to the pan.
  2. Bring just to a simmer (do not boil). Reduce heat; simmer gently, uncovered, for 15 minutes or until flavors are blended. Discard spice bag. Serve warm in mugs with additional cinnamon if desired.
