GLUEHWEIN (NON-ALCOHOLIC) - GERMAN APPLE & TEA PUNCH
Posted for ZWT6 German Region. I found this on a German Food & Recipe site that explained traditions of Germany. This drink is normally made with wine for adults but when I saw this post for a non-alcoholic drink for kids or adults who do not want alcohol I just had to post it.

GLUEHWEIN (GERMAN HOT WINE PUNCH)
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.

GLUEHWEIN
Gluehwein is a German/Austrian winter-holiday drink that most tourists know as an after-ski drink. After you come in out of the snow, it is supposed to make you glow with warmth again. Watch it: Since you drink this wine warm, the alcohol goes to your head extra quick! Drink when you really have come in, and do not have to go out again! This is the one my father used to make for New Year's Eve.

Steps:
- In a saucepan, combine the water, sugar, and cinnamon stick. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer.
- Cut the orange in half, and squeeze the juice into the simmering water. Push the cloves into the outside of the orange peel, and place peel in the simmering water. Continue simmering for 30 minutes, until thick and syrupy.
- Pour in the wine, and heat until steaming but not simmering. Remove the clove-studded orange halves. Serve hot in mugs or glasses that have been preheated in warm water (cold glasses will break.)

Tips:
- Use a variety of apples. Different apples will give your punch different flavors. For a sweeter punch, use sweeter apples like Honeycrisp or Gala. For a tarter punch, use tarter apples like Granny Smith or Braeburn.
- Add other spices to your punch. In addition to the cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg, you can also add other spices like ginger, allspice, or cardamom. Be careful not to add too many spices, or your punch will become overpowering.
- Sweeten your punch to taste. The amount of sugar you add will depend on the sweetness of your apples and the other ingredients you use. Start with a small amount of sugar and add more to taste.
- Serve your punch hot or cold. Gluehwein is traditionally served hot, but it can also be served cold. If you are serving your punch cold, be sure to chill it for at least 2 hours before serving.
Conclusion:
Gluehwein is a delicious and festive drink that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal taste. So next time you are looking for a warm and comforting drink, give Gluehwein a try. You won't be disappointed!
