"Nothing makes our Christmas complete like a pot of Glogg on the stove, filling the house (and our bellies) with it's intoxicating warmth and aroma. You'll need to keep the Port wine bottles you use, or you might want to use old, smaller wine bottles if giving them as gifts. Just soak them in hot soapy water to remove the labels, and then create your own label on the computer. (Just be ready to give it every year, because the demand will be high.) You'll also need a large stainless steel soup pot with a cover, a strainer, and a funnel. For the dried fruit pieces, you may want to buy one mixed bag of dried fruit and just take what you need for the recipe."
