Bingley, I thought your theme song was "glub glub glub", with an ::urp:: thrown in for good measure.

There's supposed to be an umlaut: Glögg, pronounced "gloog". The variety my Ultra Liberal Scandahoovian mom makes, since they're absolute zero-tolerance tea-totallers, is without the fermented fruit or alcohol.
Kinda makes it like a liquid fruitcake. As in the above recipe, bury it in the backyard next to the Lutefisk...

I have a bottle of it in my booze bin, keith. One of the crosses that those of us who marry danish goddesses have to bear.

LUTEFISK, ARRGGHHH!!!!!!!!!!!
You are never to say that word in polite company again. But since we're talking backyard burial...BALUT!!! (Known as the culinary 'Heart of Darkness'.)

At least yours has booze in it!! A little Aquavite or vodka helps slurp down the Sangria of Northern Europe.
