Where the rooibos Winter Red is the soft, sweet take on a Christmas cup, this is the sharp one: a tart hibiscus-and-orange base that mimics the acidity of actual mulled wine, with clove, ginger and cardamom over the top. The quirk is a creamy eggnog note on the finish, which some will find a clever festive touch and others a bit much. Caffeine free and strictly seasonal, it is best mulled hot beside the fire or chilled into a festive punch, and it never pretends to be an everyday drink.
Teapigs Winter Glühwein, in brief.
Teapigs Winter Glühwein is a caffeine-free, alcohol-free take on mulled wine, hibiscus and apple with cinnamon, cloves and natural mulled-wine spice, whole ingredients in the pyramid temple rather than dusty fragments. It is unmistakably seasonal, a Christmas warmer, the boozy-tasting but teetotal sibling to the Teapigs Spiced Winter Red, picked into the teas.co.uk curator selection.
Preparation: one pyramid, 250ml of water at 95 to 100 degrees, a mug to hold it all, and four to five minutes to wait. The whole-leaf pyramid lets the fruit and spice open fully for a fuller cup than fragments give. Being caffeine-free it works any time, and it pairs especially well with warm mince pies.
Curator notes: rated four point six out of five, Winter Glühwein is the festive mulled-wine warmer in the Teapigs range. For packaging details, read what is printed on the current UK pack.
Ingredients and dietary: Hibiscus, ginger, cinnamon, star anise, cloves, apple and orange peel give a mulled wine taste with neither alcohol nor caffeine.

The Story Behind the Teapigs Brand
Back in 2006, in London, Nick and Louise started Teapigs with one aim: getting people to drink real leaf tea again.- Tea Temple Innovation: Paper bags full of dust were the irritation, and out of it they built the Teapigs brand tea temple to give whole leaves and fruit chunks room to infuse properly.
- Real Ingredients: Spiced Glühwein is a winter exclusive and a limited edition, built from whole spices and chunky fruit to taste like it came from a real tea house.
- Business for Good: Teapigs is a certified B Corp and gives its backing to the Point Foundation in Rwanda, whose work reaches vulnerable communities and orphanages in tea growing regions.

Sustainable tea production is where Teapigs likes to lead, and the aim is for every component of this Winter Glühwein pack to treat the environment well.- Packaging: The box and the pyramid bags can need different recycling routes, so read the disposal notes on the UK pack and follow what your local authority says.
