Swedish glog with Polish vodka.  About 1 ounce vodka to 2 ounces of glog, and garnished with an orange slice.  Only Polish-made vodka is allowed to enter our house.  The glog is left over from a bottle I purchased at IKEA, so that was super-convenient.  I shook this over ice cubes and strained it, because I wanted it cold but not watered down.

Yes, alcohol will be serving as a physical balm for me in the weeks ahead.  And since both Poland and Sweden border the Baltic, I had to name this the Baltic Balm.
