    Add the soaked blanched almonds and cranberries to the “gløgg” and add the rum to taste. Ladle into glasses and serve.
 
•   Any remaining gløgg can be kept warm in the casserole. Place on the lid and leave on the hob, turned off, and the residual heat of the cast iron will keep the gløgg lovely and warm.
