![]() We want to know where sells the best cocktails in Hull and East Yorkshire. ![]() I tend to buy a few ready-made bottles of mulled wine to see us through the festive season - I’ll start around Halloween if it’s cold enough to warrant sticking a pan of it on - but this year I decided to have a crack at making my own from scratch, as well as giving serious consideration to some supermarket varieties, rather than just heating the contents and necking it. It was my first introduction to hot spiced wine and my love for it has not waned since. And more mugs of Gluhwein than you could shake a Bratwurst at in the myriad festive markets we visited. It was the most Christmassy thing I have ever experienced – snow on the mountain tops, fresh Christmas trees being delivered door-to-door, amazing displays of white fairy lights and candle bridges in every window, all reflected by the stunning waters of the Rhine. There is nothing like the scent of mulled wine in the air to take me straight back to Germany’s Christmas markets, a wonderful trip I made many moons ago with family members and friends who all happened to be pairs of sisters.
