This comment comes quite late, but I did make this for Christmas Eve, and then a few more times (by popular demand) over the holidays. I ended up using cranberry juice for the base, and since it wasn’t concentrated, just using it for all the liquid.

I recently discovered the Swedish Glögg and loved it. This Finnish version and your addition of mint leaves and star anise sounds great too. Thanks.

Jenni – thanks for the compliment, and we definitely don’t mind! Your banner is very pretty, and I like how the idea behind it is the same, but it captures the athmosphere of your kitchen through the objects you’ve chosen.

Hope you are having a good winter. i have been in Greece since July, on research, then with my husband ill. I am living in his village, south of Ancient Sparta, where foraging is common even in winter. They now now about your blog, and your foraging. they are impressed, since the fear is that all this will be lost. A blessed New Year.

Actually, Finland has loads of döner kebab places, they are very popular here too. From a vegan point of view, the positive thing is that most of them have falafel on the menu too.

But pizzerias are the most common type of restaurant here.

Then there’s loads of Thai and Chinese places, like everywhere else.

But vegetarianism, let alone veganism, is so marginal a phenomenon here that there are only a couple of vegetarian restaurants in all of Finland.

Glad you liked the photos from the Buddhist restaurant. It was very good.

What kind of cultural restaurants can be found in Finland? I always wondered if Döner restaurants were popular like they are in Germany although I’m guessing they are not.

That looks incredible! The star aniseed is a wonderful touch. My family usually has the Glühwein but I’m not a big fan, I think I’d much rather have some of your recipe :)
