White wine Roman spice mix
Roman festivals and games are becoming increasingly popular. Young and old "Romans" relive times long past with fun and joy. Of course, this also includes Roman-spiced food and drinks, as the Romans loved spices above all else. So a "conditum paradoxum" (spiced wine) was a must at every celebration.
Roman drinking customs and Roman "wine embellishment"
In ancient Rome - 300 BC - water was already drunk warm and cooled with snow. It was also drunk with vinegar, the so-called "posca". This non-alcoholic drink was particularly popular with ordinary citizens and legionaries. The Romans also enjoyed their spiced white wine. The drink was a mixture of wine and honey, but also wine and water.
These drinks were increasingly "embellished" by mixing different wines or adding various spices. For example, the "vina condita" or "vina piperata" was made by adding pepper. An even more elaborate variant was "conditum paradoxum". In this drink, wine was mixed with honey, pepper, dates, laurel and saffron and drunk hot or chilled. Young, handsome men - cupbearers - served such wine to the guests, who wore wreaths on their heads to protect them from the negative effects of alcohol, such as headaches.
For a successful round table at a historical Roman feast, one or more bottles of Roman and homemade spiced wine - with or without alcohol - should therefore not be missing. The 30g spice mix consists of aniseed, coriander and grated bay leaf. Mixed with white wine - a delicious version of a Roman spiced wine. The spice mix is enough for one bottle of white wine. The recipe is also enclosed.

Spices - the "great love" of the ancient Romans
People in ancient Rome loved spices very much. Food and drinks were seasoned in a wide variety of ways. Local herbs were particularly popular. Coriander (coriandrum), aniseed (anisum) and laurel (laurus) came from the Mediterranean region and were made famous by the Romans.
