TRF´s Annual Glögg Afternoon

A sure sign that Christmas is just around the corner is the annual Glögg afternoon of the association The Foreign Residents in the TRNC (TFR).

Last Friday the event was held for the third time, which means it´s become an integral part of the annual events calendar of the club.

Glögg is the Scandinavian variation of mulled wine and is an excellent thing to generate some warmth and comfort on cold winter days.

About 40 members of the TFR met at the Acmenya Restaurant in Alsancak in the afternoon and “Santa Claus” Horst, the treasurer of the club, has become a professional in the field of the preparation of the popular “winter warmer”.

The Glögg along with Christmas cookies on the table provided good mood among the guests, even the bad weather of recent days could not do anything about it.

If you can´t be bothered to make your own Glögg this Christmas, take a drive to IKEA in Nicosia and buy a bottle or two. While you´re there make sure to enjoy their Swedish Christmas lunch.
