Hello, Bright-Rubies!

Ok, in Russia we mostly drink hot tea with lemon or with homemade jam 'varenie'. But there's an old hot Russian traditional winter drink - Sbiten! I drank it several times in my life, not very often. Now I want to prepare it myself. It's extremely healthy and delicious!
Sbiten is a hot drink made from spices and herbs with honey or sugar. The drink goes back to about 1100 AD. Sbiten is considered a Russian national winter beverage.
Ingredients:
5 liters of filtered water; 800 g berry jam; 200 g honey; 2 g ginger; 2 g cloves; 1 g cinnamon…
Method:
Bring the water to a boil.
Then tun heat to low and add honey and jam.
Then 5 minutes later, add the spices to the water and let steep for 5 more minutes…
Then Serve in mugs, steaming hot… (Enjoy)
Note: This is a great New Years drink and can be made alcoholic by using red wine in place of the water…
PS: Wine Sbiten
To make Wine Sbiten you need:
