Feuerzangenbowle

Or as my honey likes to call it, forgetsitsboolie.

Feuerzangenbowle is a traditional German drink, mulled wine with rum-soaked sugar melted into it.  Here's how to make it:


I'm just like the guy presenting, although my German accent is thicker.  In any case, we made a feuerzangenbowle last night at my house for our solstice celebration.  We poured more rum on the sugar cone this year, so I was still nervous about explosions.

Luckily we had no need of the fire extinguisher in the background, although we had it at the ready. The wine was very good, as was the chili and cornbread.

Later we went out into the cold and built a fire to laugh at the long midwinter night.
Ha, ha, ha!
