This is indeed the best gluhwein I ever tasted. I made it myself, followed exact the instructions and man oh man, it is wonderfull! Thank you madam, whatever your name is!
I was stationed with NATO in Heidelberg. We went to the field with my fellow German soldiers. It was my first time drinking Gluhwein It is very good in the winter.
Обожаю глинтвейн. Когда мы встречаем праздник на природе и вокруг мороз,то я кладу все специи и фрукты в термос и заливаю их подогретым вином.В таком виде глинтвейн настаивается и долго остаётся горячим. Спасибо за рассказ.
I make this all winter. I never thought about caramelizing the sugar and will try this next time. I find if the citrus peel is left in for too long (30-40 minutes max) it will make it bitter. I usually make mine with apple juice (Apfelsaft) Also can be bottled and kept in refrigerator for later. Lecker!
Danke schön! I moved to Germany from 2013 and left in 2018. Fall in love with this boring country. This year I will make Glühwein myself when xmas come. I hope the smell will bring back some of my memories in Germany.
I used Bordeaux Supérieur 2016 wine. It suits also very nice. I bought the electronic thermometer lately just to keep the right temperature. Your recipe is delicious. Glühwein smells beautiful. Thank you.
Thanks for sharing this amazing video, I had no idea about gluhwein until last Christmas I visited Germany and France and now I can make it at home. Thanks again 🙏
We have a wonderful Christkindl markt here in Cincinnati and it's so perfect to walk around the square with a mug of glühwein while the kids ice skate and the snow is falling! Can't wait to try this recipe
My mom made her version of this every year for Christmas Eve, wonderful memory. We drank it in a glass that fit into a silver holder. The holder looked like the bottom of a silver mug. ( I hope that made sense) that was our tradition and the only thing we drank out of those glasses. ❤️💕
Your description resonated with me too, as it reminded me of similar glasses my parents had when I was young and we lived in the Netherlands. Thanks for the memory! I'd forgotten about those glasses.
I made the recipe today and it was a flashback to my trip to Christmas markets in Germany. Spectacular recipe, congratulations. Greetings from Costa Rica
Yayyyyyyyyyy! Thanks so much for making this! I've tried several times on my own and have been disappointed. I had no idea there were so many recipes! Most don't specify the type of wine. I love the idea of starting with caramelized sugar. I can't wait to try this. Hope you have a wonderful holiday.
I absolutely loved this, thank you for making this video!! I can’t wait to try and recreate this recipe. When you said: “Although this may be better for my liver, uhm still you know thats not what we’re going for” made me laugh so hard 😂.
Yes I’m so glad I found this channel!! We have a friend near Leipzig and we went to the Christmas Market with her last year. It was fantastic and the gluhwein was the best!
I loved the way you used your thermometer and explained about the alcohol! I want to try it without alcohol so perfect! I have fond memories of having this beverage in Salzburg with a friend at the magical Christmas markets!
I tried this recipe last week, I could not find juniper berries so I substituted 5 or 6 cardamom pods instead. It turned out great but I’m thinking the fragrance would have been even better with those juniper berries. I need to keep my eyes open for them…thanks for making this video!
I cannot wait to make this at Christmas, Barbara. I’ve been sharing your videos with my friend who is married to a German and they loved. My daughter married into a part German family so we adore all things German now! She shares her first name with her husband’s German grandmother. How spooky is that? I love your channel and cannot wait to get back to Germany and Austria next year. 🥰
Hallo und tolles Rezept. Ich mache auch meine eigenen. Deiner schmeckt besser als meiner. Ich hoffe, Sie haben ein frohes Weihnachtsfest und ein glückliches neues Jahr
Sounds delicious...my first experience with glühwein was at the Christkindlemarkt in Nuremberg...as I was blowing on the hot liquid to cool it a bit...when I made the mistake of inhaling the spicy vapors...WOW! Wishing you Fröhliche Weihnachten!
Very nice! I always recall the angel Clarence asking for mulled wine at the bar in 'It's a Wonderful Life' and now I know what it is and better still how to make a variety of it. Merry Christmas and Happy Hogmanay!
I have never watched that movie and had to look it up. Seems that it hadn’t aired in Germany (to my knowledge) and seems something I need to see this season, thank you!
You really can’t beat home grown fruit, none of the under ripe picking and cold storage that’s necessary for commercial sale. It means sweeter, often juicier depending upon the seasons weather. One of the best fruits I’ve ever had were my blood plums and apricots eaten immediately upon picking from my own grown tree. Sadly I don’t live on that property anymore. I grew 17 different fruits.
Always served this on new years eve, with devild eggs, frankfurters, potato salad(warm) and wait till midnight....then kaboom it's fireworks time , good times.
Very good video - well shot and well presented. As for the recipe, let's see, I am going to try it tonight, und ich wuensche Ihnen einen guten Rutsch ins neue Jahr
Kannst du bitte auch das Rezept fürs Feuerzangenbowle geben ? Herzlichen danke und Grüße liebe aus California! ich hab vor vierzehn jähre in Frankfurt und Köln gelebt
To get more aroma from spices I would boil them in plain water first and then add that 💧 with spices in mixture and boil,, fresh ginger is a demo addition
I tried your recipe and it's really good in terms of sweetness. What I found not so good was heaviness, not sure how to explain it. It was too heavy to drink, is there advice on how to make this drink more light?
@@MyGermanRecipes I've read your advice about percents, ours was 13.5%. Maybe it just wasn't good?.. By heaviness I mean that it is difficult to drink, it wasn't easy to drink. Next time I will try to use lower alcohol
This is a recipe I think I requested at some point, so thank you very much 😊 is the grape juice a way to extend it and reduce the level of alcohol or is it traditionally made this way? I think juniper berries are used in making gin? Might be difficult to track down here in Australia but may be available from brewing shops.
It's traditionally made with grape juice. You can leave the juniper berries out if you don't get them at your spice section. I don't think it will make too much of a difference.
I don‘t mind you asking 😀. Yes, I have lost weight ... after first gaining it. I had some injuries which kept me from exercising properly for a year and now I am basically back to my former normal.
I can't find juniper berries. Is there a substitute you suggest, or just leave them out? I also usually add brandy or some other alcohol like that. Thoughts?
Can I use non-organic 🍋 and 🍊? Also, what about other ingredients? Are they organic or normal ones? Is it "cosher" to mix organic ingredients with normal ones? These questions are super important to me, and I'm so confused! 🤯
@@MyGermanRecipes Vielen Dank! Ich wohne in Malaysia, und spreche ein bisschen Deutsch. Letztes Weihnachten in Kuala Lumpur (die Hauptstadt) hatte ich zum ersten Mal mit meinen österreichischen Freunden Glühwein getrunken. Es war unvergesslich :) Vielleicht mach ich dieses Jahr meinen eigenen Glühwein! (Entschuldigung für mein schlechtes Deutsch)
After making this, can it be stored for another day, since I wouldn't likely be able to finish a bottle of wine in one night? Or perhaps just use half the recipe?
Das kann man sicher machen aber dann ist es offiziell kein Glühwein mehr sondern ein Punsch. Ich erwähne die Möglichkeit im Blog Post, tu aber in meinen Glühwein keinen zusätzlichen Alkohol.
It's a shame to see the cooked fruit, and spices go to waste. But, if you have some dark rye bread, you could toast it at 350F in your oven for 40 minutes, and soak in a bottle with sugar, and the fruits/spices and make some eastern European kvass beer soda in about 4 days.
You can use the wine that you like most. I am not too much a fan of dry wine so I chose something inbetween. My favorite is the "Intermingle" from Aldi. It's a mix of California wines and I really like it.
I never really experienced Christmas until I visited a Christmas Market in Germany. So wonderful
croatia has a great one as well
Mee too. I visited last year n they were wonderful
Me too! First had it in Nuremberg, Germany Omgsh the smell was vunabar! Will never forget☺️
Glühwein + calm natured german lady = whispers of the heart.
I miss germany! 🇩🇪
awe
I love it when she said “Mm no, that’s not what we’re going for” 😂😆❤️
in German nö
I'm not an alcohol drinker usually...but very interested in trying this, this coming winter!!
I tried it in Zurich. I was suffering from cough n cold and someone suggested this. It worked like magic and I m fan of this.
This is indeed the best gluhwein I ever tasted. I made it myself, followed exact the instructions and man oh man, it is wonderfull! Thank you madam, whatever your name is!
Just a tip that I would do is to warm up the grape juice prior to adding it to the caramelized sugar.
I was stationed with NATO in Heidelberg. We went to the field with my fellow German soldiers. It was my first time drinking Gluhwein It is very good in the winter.
I can “smell” this.... it reminds me of the Christkindl market in Nuremberg. 😊
Me too. I really miss that place
I first had it at a christmas market. Absolutely amazing. It does indeed keep you warm! I'm sure the dark lagers and many types of wurst helped too...

What a beautiful lady with a calm engaging voice to listen to. I’ll definitely try her recipe.
Thank you! It turned out amazing 😋 Best way is to add sufficient amount of sugar
Haven't had this in 43 plus years. I will be having it this year though.
Just made this...lovely thankyou so so much

A favorite memory of mine was while living in Germany, going to the Christmas markets and drinking gluhvein as it was lightly snowing. 💜
I tried gluhwein this year for the first time in Holland a week or 2 ago. Seems easy enough to make. Sure was tasty on a nice cold day

Wonderful!

I have a German friend in New Zealand I will make this for him, being German I am sure he will let me know if I get it wrong LOL.
I've done it today and it was just perfect. I just add it some Vieux and that is Jenever liquer..;TOP !!!
So happy you made this!

I’d melt the sugar at a much lower temp, to reduce the risk of burning. And adding in the grape/apple juice very slowly. 👍🏻
Very nice recipe I do at thaNEW year .Thanks I wish you and your family a very happy NEW YEAR.
Happy New Year!!!
Danke, I will make it today!!!
Thank you GBU Merry Christmas 🎁🎄

How does Juniper berries change the flavor? We have to go to a specialty store to get them-USA. Looks so good!!
I got my juniper berries at a grocery here in Texas. Have you tried to order them on amazon? amzn.to/3InWJEe

Can I save it for later? If so, how long and how?
I lived in Germany for a while. I always loved this drink. I wanted to gift it to my friends.
I wouldn‘t make it more than two days ahead since the wine was already in contact with air.
Looks good 👍🏼 Did you switch off stove before adding wine??
I visited Christmas market in Aachen in 2006 😁 I still have the smell of glühwein in my nose 👃
Wow, that was a very long time ago! You must have a very good memory of that visit :-)
You can have them serve you your gluhwein in a terracotta or other mug to keep, extra money of course. Mine says “frohe weihnachten”
😆 You’re supposed to bring that mug back and get your money back then. It’s called “pfand”. But of course you can also keep it for that amount.
Great recipe! could you add the ingredients to the description part of the video? Thanks in advance! 🍷

Do you mean heavy in terms of the alcohol? Then maybe chose a wine with less % or you could substitute some of it with more juice.

It's traditionally made with grape juice. You can leave the juniper berries out if you don't get them at your spice section. I don't think it will make too much of a difference.
Isn't it a good idea, to add the grape juice already hot, so that it doesn't Harden the melted sugar...?
Can this be bottled as is so I can make a bunch and bottle it so it’s always available?
It should be made fresh, otherwise you will have a lot of headache.
OMG this is very GEIL!!🤩😍😋 #ichliebees ❤

Just leave them out. If you add strong alcohol other than wine then it’s called punch. Go for it if you can handle it and don’t need to drive 🤷♀️
