CHRISTMAS GLOGG WITH BRANDY AND PORT
As it simmers, this traditional Swedish mulled wine will fill your home with the scent of burnt orange peel, cardamom and heady sweet wine. It is just the thing to sip on a winter's night as your toes keep warm by the fire. If you choose to serve glogg the traditional way, with raisins and almonds, you'll be rewarded at the end of your glass with plump, wine-infused raisins and tender, toothsome almonds.

Steps:
- Using metal tongs, hold the orange peel over a flame until it starts to singe and brown in spots. Put it in a large pot.
- Using the flat side of a knife or cleaver, or a rolling pin or mallet, crack and bruise the cardamom pods. Add to the pot with the orange peel. Add the wine, port, brandy, sugar, cloves and cinnamon. Gently simmer over low heat until the whole house smells like spice, about 20 minutes. Taste and add more sugar if you want it sweeter. Serve garnished with raisins and almonds if you like.
