GERMAN ERDBEER BOWLE (STRAWBERRY WINE PUNCH)



German Erdbeer Bowle (Strawberry Wine Punch) image

Germans often serve a delicious Bowle at summer parties. There are many, many variations on a bowle, here is but one variation I found in a special summer issue of Kreativ Kuche magazine. I have translated this directly from the German. I recommend trying a German Riesling with this, but any white wine you prefer will do just as nicely. When serving Bowle, your German host usually will provide small picks along with your punch glass - the picks are for stabbing the wine soaked berries floating in your glass so you can eat them. The berries are, in my opinion, the best part! Plan to start this just a few hours before your guests arrive as this does not keep.

Time 3h

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 kg fresh strawberries
100 g powdered sugar
1/2 bunch lemon balm leaves (or lemon rind, see note in instructions)
4 (3/4 liter) bottles white wine
1 (3/4 liter) bottle champagne

Steps:

  • 2-3 hours before your guests arrive, wash the strawberries,drain well and pat dry.
  • Halve the berries, then place them in the bottom of large punch bowl or glass pitcher.
  • Sprinkle the powdered sugar over them.
  • Rinse the lemon balm leaves and shake them dry.
  • Pluck the leaves from their stems and add them to the berries.
  • Pour one bottle of wine over the berry mixture, cover, and cool in the fridge.
  • When the guests have arrived, add the remaining wine and the champagne.
  • Lemon balm is an herb in the mint family common in Europe; if unavailable then use a vegetable peeler to cut about 5-6 long narrow curls of lemon rind in place of the balm (remove before serving).

GLUEHWEIN (GERMAN HOT WINE PUNCH)



Gluehwein (German Hot Wine Punch) image

This hot spiced wine punch is a staple at the Christmas festivites in Germany. Everywhere you go during the month of December, you will most likely find someone selling mugs of hot, steaming Gluehwein. Here is a version I adapted from "Authentic German Home-Style Recipes" by Gini Youngkrantz. Posted by request. I am guessing on the cook time - it should be just until hot, but NOT boiling.

Time 10m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 (24 ounce) bottle red german wine
1 cup water
1 whole cinnamon stick
2 whole cloves
1/2 lemon, thinly sliced
1/3 cup sugar

Steps:

  • Mix everything together in a large saucepan and heat until hot but NOT boiling.
  • Boiling it will ruin the Gluehwein, so be careful to not set your heat to high.
  • You can pour this into a crockpot on LOW heat and serve warm.

PFIRSICHBOWLE (GERMAN SPARKLING PEACH WINE PUNCH)



Pfirsichbowle (German Sparkling Peach Wine Punch) image

May marks the beginning of Bowle season in Germany, and is heralded in with a holiday (May Day). During May, and throughout the summer, you will start to see Bowle served in the restaurants and at fairs. Bowle is a strong wine & fruit punch that comes in many varieties. Use the best quality wines you can afford (as long as you think they taste good is all that matters - not the price tag). In Germany, you can buy Bowle sets - decorative glass pitchers or punch bowls with small cups and picks (the picks are for spearing the fruit). Watch out - this punch packs a wallop - and the fruit is always the best part. Plan ahead - the sugared fruit needs to macerate overnight in the fridge. The serving size is really a guess.

Time P1DT1m

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 medium peaches, pitted
4 -6 tablespoons sugar, to taste
4 (750 ml) bottles qba riesling wine, chilled (very good quality)
1 (750 ml) bottle sweet champagne (good quality) or 1 (750 ml) bottle sweet sparkling wine, chilled (good quality)

Steps:

  • Sliced peaches and drop into a pot of boiling water for a few seconds- just to blanch them so the skins will come off easily, not to cook them.
  • Pull off the skins and set them in the bottom of your bowle pitcher in a layers, sprinkling with sugar for each layer (one peach per layer)-amount is to taste, but probably 1 rounded Tbsp per peach is a good guess.
  • Cover and chill bowle pitcher 24 hours.
  • Have a decorative bowl filled with ice that your bowle pitcher will sit in to keep cool.
  • Nestle the bowle pitcher in the ice bed and pour in the chilled wine and the champagne.
  • Stir gently with a ladle and serve.
