Mince pie is a traditional British pastry, made with dried fruits and nuts, sweetened with molasses and brown sugar, enriched with brandy, rum, whiskey, or sherry, and scented with warm spices including cinnamon, clove, nutmeg, and allspice. In the pre-modern period, mince pie sometimes included cooked meat, which could have been beef, suet, mutton, chicken, or tongue.
