Whole Festive Spices & Botanicals · Two Mulled Drink Variations

Bring the comforting aroma of whole spices and beautiful botanicals to your festive table with Flowers from my Meadow's Festive Meadow Blend.

Inspired by the tradition of warming Glühwein and fragrant alcohol-free mulled drinks, this blend is available in two distinctive 100g variations. Spiced Cardamom is warmly aromatic and spice-forward, while Berry & Hibiscus brings the tart floral character of Hibiscus and a beautifully ruby hue.

How to Prepare — Alcohol-Free

Add your selected Festive Meadow variation to a saucepan of grape juice, apple juice, apple-cranberry juice or another suitable alcohol-free base. Warm gently so the botanicals and spices release their flavour; strain before serving. Add fresh orange or honey to taste.

How to Prepare — Traditional Glühwein

Warm your chosen festive blend gently in red wine, taking care not to boil rapidly. Allow the ingredients time to infuse, strain out the spices and botanicals, and serve warm. The dry blend itself contains no alcohol.

Other Precautions

Check the ingredient list for allergies or sensitivities. Use culinary-grade spices and botanicals. Wine-based drinks contain alcohol; serve responsibly. Consult an appropriate healthcare professional before medicinal or concentrated botanical use during pregnancy, breastfeeding or alongside medication.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Festive Meadow Blend?
Festive Meadow Blend is a botanical mulled spice blend handcrafted in South Africa by Flowers from my Meadow. It combines whole spices, botanicals and fruit ingredients for preparing warm Glühwein-style drinks and alcohol-free festive serves.
What is a mulled spice blend?
A mulled spice blend is a mixture of aromatic spices and botanicals designed to be gently warmed in wine, juice or another liquid base. As the ingredients infuse, they release their natural aroma, colour and flavour into the drink.
What is Glühwein?
Glühwein is a traditional European mulled wine made by gently warming wine with aromatic spices and often citrus or fruit. Festive Meadow Blend provides the botanical and spice element for creating your own Glühwein-style drink at home.
Does Festive Meadow Blend contain alcohol?
No. Festive Meadow Blend itself contains no alcohol. Alcohol is only introduced if you choose to prepare it with wine. For an alcohol-free mulled drink, use grape juice, apple juice, apple-cranberry juice or another preferred non-alcoholic base.
What is the difference between Spiced Cardamom and Berry & Hibiscus?
Spiced Cardamom has a warmer, aromatic and spice-forward character built around traditional whole mulling spices and cardamom. Berry & Hibiscus is fruitier and more vibrant, with dried berries and hibiscus contributing rich colour and a gently tart botanical character.
How do I make Glühwein with Festive Meadow Blend?
Add Festive Meadow Blend to red wine and warm gently for approximately 15–20 minutes, allowing the whole spices and botanicals to infuse. Avoid rapidly boiling the wine. Strain before serving and add fresh orange or another festive garnish if desired.
How do I make an alcohol-free mulled drink?
Add Festive Meadow Blend to grape juice, apple juice, apple-cranberry juice or another alcohol-free base. Warm gently until the spices and botanicals have infused, then strain and serve warm.
What type of wine can I use for Festive Meadow Blend?
A red wine works beautifully for a traditional Glühwein-style serve. You do not need an expensive bottle; choose a red wine you already enjoy drinking and allow the whole spices and botanicals to add the festive character.
Can I use Festive Meadow Blend with apple or grape juice?
Yes. Both apple and grape juice can be used as alcohol-free bases. Apple juice creates a lighter, fruitier spiced drink, while red grape juice gives a deeper colour and character closer to a traditional mulled wine experience.
Where is Festive Meadow Blend made?
Festive Meadow Blend is thoughtfully blended and packed in small batches by Flowers from my Meadow in South Africa.
