Ep 82 - I'll Never Put Milk in My Wine - Christmas Markets with Mulled Wine

life pairings

This week we explore the wonderful world of Christmas Markets! We prepared for it by pre-drinking a lot of mulled wine...so we were very excited during the episode!

We learn about traditions, German markets, 2nd century cocktail and somehow Nazi's sneak in there for a bit. They tried to ruin Christmas Markets!

We also digress into talk about the Baldwins, steins, Kurt Russel and Yuka Fluk.
