This quickly assembled glogg combines wine and several spirits to feed the
lively flame. You warm the liquids in the kitchen but bring it out before
guests to set afire, ladling the blazing punch over melting sugar cubes.
Inexpensive, dry red wines work well as the base for glogg; but for
variation, a specific varietal, such as Zinfandel or a Gamay, adds a nice
quality.
In an attractive 3-quart saucepan or kettle combine wine, Sherry, Vodka,
cloves and cinnamon stick. Place over moderate heat until just hot enough
to sip comfortably; do not boil. Remove from heat and present for flaming
before your guests (do not set pan beneath an exhaust fan or anything that
can catch fire). Mound as many sugar cubes as possible in a slotted spoon
or ladle and dip quickly into the glogg. Lift out at once; hold a lighted
match close to surface of punch to set aflame. Then spoon glogg frequently
over sugar cubes to melt sugar and maintain flame (agitating the liquid
releases the alcohol fumes that burn). Add any remaining sugar to ladle and
melt by the same technique or simply stir into the glogg. You can serve the
glogg as it flames; keep it warm on an electric warming tray, or over a
candle until all is served. Add a few raisins and almonds to each
individual cup. You might offer small spoons for dipping almonds and
raisins out of cups to eat after the glogg is sipped. Makes 5 cups or 10
servings of 1/2-cup sized portions.
