Mulled Wine

Cultural Context

Originating in ancient Rome, mulled wine was a way to warm up during cold winters. In Europe, particularly in Germany and Belgium, it became a festive drink during Christmas markets, symbolizing warmth and togetherness. Today, variations exist worldwide, with spices and sweetness tailored to local preferences.
