Historical Roots of Warming Beverages

Although "Spiced Mulled Wine" is a modern blend, its conceptual origins trace back to ancient times, to the traditions of preparing warming drinks with spices. The culture of consuming such infusions emerged in antiquity, when spices were valued as highly as gold.

Origin of Glühwein

An interesting fact: the first mentions of heated wine with spices are found in the works of the ancient Roman gourmet Apicius, who lived in the 1st century AD. His recipe "Conditum Paradoxum" included wine, honey, dates, and a set of aromatic spices, which became the prototype for modern mulled wines and warming fruit-and-spice beverages.
