Mulled wine is usually hot as well as spiced btw. It's delicious - which
from someone who hates red wine as a rule is saying a lot. Can't think of
the company name right now but when you buy dried herbs in a supermarket
they usually come in yellow and white packets or jars (someone tell me which
company I mean?) anyway that company make mulled wine spices as well. They
come in sachets (like Bouquet Garni) and you heat the wine gently in a
saucepan with the sachet in the pan too - never done it myself because I'm
lazy, but I keep meaning to.

Gluhwein - is that mulled wine? Because I drank a lot of that when I spent a
year in Bavaria (boy does it get cold there at Christmas, I mean that's
obvious in theory, but it's so much colder than you expect even knowing
average temperatures). One of the department stores had a window which sold
food and drink - Schweinenackensemmel (OK I admit it's been a few years and
my spelling is deserting me) with mustard and a glass of gluhwein really
warmed you up when shopping.
