This festive drink is typically made with red wine, cinnamon, cloves, and other warming spices, served hot to unite people in the chilly atmosphere of holiday markets. Glühwein embodies the spirit of German Christmas celebrations and often pairs with local treats like gingerbread or roasted nuts, creating a cozy and festive experience for attendees.
