Glühwein Tea - herbal tea 100 grams - Café du Jour loose tea

What is Glühwein tea?

Glühwein tea is a loose leaf herbal tea that captures the warming, spiced flavour of traditional mulled wine — without any alcohol. This blend from Café du Jour combines a rich mix of spices in a 100-gram pack of loose tea, ready to brew whenever you want that cosy winter feeling in a cup.

The flavour is bold and layered. You get the sweet warmth of cinnamon, the citrus brightness of orange peel and lemon peel, the earthy depth of beetroot, and the unmistakable kick of cardamom and ginger. Star anise, clove, pepper, chilli peppers, and a touch of vanilla extract round out the blend, giving every cup a satisfying balance of heat and spice.

A chai-inspired winter blend

Think of this herbal tea as sitting somewhere between a spiced chai and a classic mulled wine. The warming spice profile will feel familiar to fans of both, but the result is something all its own — a festive, aromatic cup that suits cold evenings, holiday gatherings, or simply a quiet moment by the fire.

Who is it suitable for?

This glühwein tea is a great choice for anyone who loves the taste of mulled wine but prefers a non-alcoholic alternative. It is equally suited to those who enjoy spiced herbal teas and want something a little more festive than a standard cup.

Because it is a loose leaf herbal tea with no added alcohol, it fits naturally into everyday winter routines as well as special occasions. Whether you are hosting a festive gathering or simply warming up after a cold walk, this blend works well.

Great for mulled wine lovers and spice fans alike

• Mulled wine enthusiasts looking for a non-alcoholic version
• Fans of chai-inspired and warming spice teas
• Anyone who enjoys seasonal and festive herbal teas
• People who want a flavourful loose leaf tea for winter
• Those who like bold, spiced flavours with a hint of sweetness

How do you use Glühwein tea?

Brewing glühwein tea is straightforward. Because it is a loose leaf tea, you will need a tea strainer, infuser, or teapot with a built-in filter. This gives you full control over how strong you want each cup, which is one of the advantages of the loose leaf format.

Brewing tips

1. Measure out your desired amount of loose tea into a strainer or infuser.
2. Pour freshly boiled water over the tea.
3. Allow it to steep for several minutes — a longer steep brings out more of the spice.
4. Remove the strainer and enjoy your cup as it is, or add a little honey if you prefer extra sweetness.
5. For a festive twist, try brewing a larger pot and serving it warm in mugs at a gathering.

The 100-gram pack gives you plenty of tea to experiment with. Try adjusting the amount of loose tea you use to find the strength that suits you — more tea gives a bolder, spicier cup.
