Glöet Sparkling Glögg is a rose bubble flavoured with glögg spices, and this year the red bottle has been joined by "GLÖET White", with a twist of baked apple. We tested both varieties at an Advent mingle at the home of Dominika Peczynski and Anders Borg.

Advent mingle at Dominika Peczynski's house
Dominika Peczynski and Anders Borg live in a lovely apartment in Östermalm in Stockholm. Last Friday, Dominika hosted a fantastic Advent mingle in connection with this year's launch of GLÖET Sparkling Glögg.
Dominika runs the PR agency Mafioso PR, which is responsible for marketing the drink in Sweden. In addition to glögg-scented bubbly, we were offered Christmas snacks such as bread, ham, cheeses, lussebullar and chocolate pralines. Very, very nice!
Mingle
There were a few hours of pleasant mingling, and we bumped into our blogging friends Christian from Food and travel blog and Lina from Liniz Travel & Lifestyle and Malin from Fab Foodie Swede.
We also had time to mingle with lifestyle bloggers, writers from different magazines and people in the PR industry. And of course, we got to talk to Dominika and her team, who are all very nice, cheerful and down-to-earth.
Glöet Sparkling Glögg
GLÖET Sparkling Glögg is a rose bubble flavoured with classic mulled wine spices. It won the 2017 IWSC (International Wine and Spirit Competition) award and the 2019 Wineawards award. Last year, the entire stock was sold out in November and this year the producers are prepared with a much larger stock. The festive bubbly is available at System and costs SEK 99.
Glöet White
GLÖET White is a new variant based on sparkling white wine flavoured with mulled wine spices and baked apple. The white variant will also be available on the system shortly, at the same price as the red one.
A Finnish family business
GLÖET Sparkling Glögg has been developed by a small Finnish family business. We met Anette and Juha-Matti Raunio at the Advent mingle at Dominika and Anders' home. Amazingly nice and cheerful, and of course very committed to their product!
We were told that it all started five years ago, when they started testing at home by flavouring bubbles with mulled wine. Now they sell their product in Finland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark and the UK.
What did we think of Glöet Sparkling Glögg?
The red version of the drink has been on the market for a while, but we had never tried it before. Now that we got the chance to try it, we really liked it. If you want to vary the mulled wine, this is a perfect companion drink at Christmas time. The Christmas spices are very clear, while it feels a bit more festive to drink bubble than regular mulled wine. Peter preferred the red and I (Helena) the white.

We hadn't done that before either, but we really liked the concept. Christmassy, but a bit more festive than mulled wine 🙂.

Bubble with mulled wine flavour sounds really cool! Maybe something for our mulled wine party in a couple of weeks.
What a fun mingle with interesting people you had.

Helena says:
Yes, a slightly exciting and fun drink! Perfect for a mulled wine party 🙂 And yes, nice mingle!

Have been drinking it for Christmas since it arrived in Sweden, very good and usually appreciated as a gift at Christmas time because of the beautiful bottle??. Ordered the white one last Thursday, will be exciting.

Helena says:
Glad you found it so early! And what a great idea, it must be perfect as a gift this time of year!

Sounds very exciting with bubbly mulled wine. May try it if we find a bottle among all the Glüweiner in Münster.
01 December 2019 - 13:59
Helena says:
Not sure if it is sold there? But you will surely find something nice! 🙂 Wishing a nice advent!

A novelty for us. Maybe we can try it at Christmas.

It was a novelty for us too, but a nice one! 🙂

It sounds like a good alternative to the otherwise sweet hot mulled wine. I like to drink mulled wine cold. Will try it out.

Helena says:
Well, we thought this was a great option! Feels Christmassy, but a bit more luxurious somehow!

Yes, you don't mingle with celebrities in a seven-room apartment in Östermalm every day. Cool! I've never heard of Glöet, but since I don't like mulled wine or bubbly, maybe it's not so strange;-)
01 December 2019 - 16:13
Helena says:
No, it's not every day 😉 But nice! And if you don't like mulled wine or bubbly, I can perhaps understand why you haven't found this one either 😉.

It may be good, but I don't trust wine in the
coloured bottles - especially bright red bottles.
Moreover, one does not know, how much is left. 🙂
It looked like a very nice gathering anyway,
with beautiful and interesting people. It is
the most important thing.

Helena says:
Don't know how much is left...? Haha, well who knows? 🙂 And yes, it was a very nice mingle 🙂.

How nice it sounded! I've never tried that one. Haven't even heard of it before, I think. Sounds tempting to test.

We started the glögg party on Saturday with the red Glöet and found it nice to start with. We will try the white one next time so we can compare.
