if you visit Oslo in december you should try a cup of GLØGG. it's a warm drink that we make around christmas (it's similar to the german Glühwein). it has red wine in it, but is sometimes also made without alcohol, and you put almonds and raisins in it. a nice place to try gløgg is at the christmas market behind city hall, there you can get both gløgg and glühwein. it can get quite cold in oslo in december, so a cup of gløgg is a great way to stay warm. together with your gløgg i recommend a 'pepperkake' - similar to ginger-bread cookies.
