Perfect for a holiday gathering, mulled wine is an easy-to-make cocktail that can thaw even the most frozen of hearts. In Norway they call it glogg (thanks, Hans!). In Germany, glühwein. There may be many recipes and names, but the general idea is the same: to infuse flavor into affordable wine by steeping in herbs and spices like cinnamon and clove.
