Ullr’s Saga
Ullr was the finest bowman of all the gods, and was known to ski so well that none could keep up with him. The wise would seek his favor before a hunt or a fight.
Great tournaments were held in his honor, and his namesake can be spotted in numerous towns across Scandinavia. This potion’s warm spices are enough to take the chill out of a winter’s night, or reinvigorate a warrior after a fight. Enjoy the tart cranberries, and bask in Ullr’s Glory
