MARIA ADELE Rosenfeld was so inspired by her time in Germany as a foreign exchange student that years later, she launched the wildly popular Carmel Christkindlmarkt. In 2018, she was encouraged to add feuerzangenbowle to the mix, beginning a yearslong quest to bring the drink to Indiana. Made with a burning sugarloaf suspended over glühwein (a warm mix of wine and spices), it’s rarely found in the U.S., so Rosenfeld had to reach out to a maker in Austria to create the special copper kettles used to brew the concoction. Those gleaming pots arrived in Indy this fall, just in time for the boozy beverage to make its Christkindlmarkt debut from November 23 through Christmas Eve. 10 Carter Green, Carmel, 317-559-6608
