Non- Alcoholic Beverages for the Holidays

Celebrations during the holidays is a time when some people are more likely to drink beyond their limits than at other times of the year. Unfortunately, the use of alcohol is linked to many types of cancer, including breast cancer, and even moderate alcohol use isn’t risk-free.

Without taking away from outings and family time, the new holiday season is a chance to give non-alcoholic cocktails and drinks a chance. Our mulled wine recipe holds the traditional flavors of cinnamon and cloves, with a (typically Nordic) twist of almond flakes and raisins as toppings.
