Holiday Beverages

Grandpa Lundquist's Glogg is a traditional Scandinavian winter beverage that’s designed to be served hot. Featuring an apple and grape juice mix that’s spiced with what appears to be cloves, nutmeg, and cinnamon.

Granpa Lundquist's JulMust (Swedish jul "Christmas" or "yule" and must "must") is a soft drink that is consumed mainly in Sweden around Christmas. In Sweden, Julmust outsells Coca-Cola during the Christmas season. Must is made of carbonated water, sugar, hops extract, malt extract, spices, coloring, citric acid, and preservatives. The hops and malt extracts give the must a somewhat beer-like taste, but must is not fermented and contains no alcohol. Must can be aged provided it is stored in a glass bottle. Some people buy must in December only to store it a year before drinking it.
