Glühwein Tea 100 g, Alcohol-Free

Mulled wine, brewed with water

This is a herbal blend put together to taste like Glühwein, the hot spiced wine of the winter markets, and there is not a drop of alcohol in it. Cinnamon carries the sweet warmth. Cardamom, clove, pepper and star anise supply the spice. Orange peel, lemon peel and a hint of vanilla round it off with a lightly fruity, full-bodied finish. Chilli pepper is in the blend as well, so there is real heat sitting behind the sweetness. With no tea leaf among the ingredients, the cup has no caffeine.

Water just off the boil

Use one teaspoon per cup and water at around 95 °C rather than a rolling boil, then leave it five to seven minutes. It is loose tea, so a strainer, an infuser or a filter pot does the work. A longer steep brings the pepper and cardamom forward; a shorter one keeps cinnamon and vanilla in front. A slice of orange or a cinnamon stick dropped in the cup makes more of it.

Where it earns its keep

It is the obvious thing to hand anyone at a winter table who is not drinking, and it scales: one large pot serves a room, and nobody has to stand over it. Unlike a spice mix for red wine it needs nothing but hot water, which makes it as easy on an ordinary Tuesday evening as at Christmas.
