Day 325: Glühwein

No, I haven’t got a chance to get a taste of this season’s first mulled wine yet, but I will, soon. When I’m not quite as tired as I am at the moment (no thanks to a bizarre sleeping pattern that I couldn’t explain) then perhaps I can get more into the spirits of winter celebration and go all out!

I was passing the Christmas market on Champs-Élysées quickly this evening. It is a little chilly out, so the queue for the mulled wine was not inconsiderable, given this is only a Monday evening. It’s a pity though this stall only sell the wine in Styrofoam cups. It would have been nice to get them in ceramic mugs (great hands-warmer), even if it costs a bit more. The cup can then be kept as souvenirs. That’ll be what I call a strategy from Selling 101.

    the Manchester Christmas market does drinks including hot chocolate, liquer coffee and gluhwein in ceramic mugs. You can keep the mugs as souvenirs or give them back to recover the deposit of £2 or £2.50. See? See what you are missing? lol

      totally – i am missing the gluhwein souvenir mugs! i think i may have one or two at home from previous christmases in dublin ;)
