Creating Mocktails at Odin's Yule
Thursday, December 197:00—8:30 PMMultipurpose Room 138Tufts Library46 Broad Street, Weymouth, MA, 02188
Odin invited you to a Viking Yule to celebrate the Winter Solstice on December 21st!
Old Man winter calls on you to join us at the Solstice to bring in the close of a good harvest and to prepare for new life. To celebrate the shortest day of the year, join us for a master class in making three Mocktails. First we have Glogg, a sweet traditional holiday drink in Scandinavian countries. Then, as we honor the Sun at our Yule altar, we'll make Blot, a red bubbly drink with grenadine to symbolize the sacrificial goats and animals given to the Gods for blessings in return. We'll end with a final toast using the Vines from Valhalla, a ginger ale-based drink to mimic the wine shared as people wished each other a good winter as they waited for the return of the Sun.
During the presentation we will learn a few Swedish words and phrases and listen to a quick retelling of Nordic myths. This is a fun evening of learning!
