Cook Time:
This groglike drink has been popular in Russia for centuries. It is usually prepared without alcohol but it is good with it, too. Just add 1/2 cup of vodka or brandy during the last few minutes of simmering. A Mark Bittman.
Directions:
1
Combine all ingredients with 1 quart water in a saucepan with a lid over medium heat; bring almost to a boil.
2
Cover and turn off heat; steep for 15 to 20 minutes.
3
Strain, then reheat and serve, or refrigerate, covered, and serve cold.

My this is good! Added vodka and served this chilled over ice as a prelude to a Russian/Eastern European buffet. Got everyone in the mood!!! Thanks, Susie.

I scaled this down to 1 serving and made just for myself. Very nice and VERY sweet with a lovely spicey flavour. I served over ice with a splash of lemon and it was so refreshing.
