Sbiten

This “old Russian” drink is almost a thousand years old. In the old days, the first samovars were used specifically for cooking sbiten. Sbiten is prepared from herbs, water and honey. During the cold season, this drink warms not only the body, but also the soul; it is prepared as follows: honey, herbs and spices are added to water simmering over low heat. Cook, skimming off the foam for 10-15 minutes, and leave for at least half an hour. For 1 liter of water you will need 50 grams of honey, ½ lemon, cinnamon, mint, cloves, oregano to taste.

Mulled wine

Its base is white or red wine, to which fruits and spices are added. The basic rule is that the wine is not brought to a boil. It is poured into a saucepan and placed on low fire. Add spices and honey. The temperature should be approximately 80 degrees, then leave covered for 5-7 minutes to allow the wine to infuse. For one bottle of red wine (750 ml) add cloves, cinnamon, anise and 2 tablespoons of aromatic honey to taste.

Grog

Grog is even more democratic than mulled wine - its ingredients can be sugar, honey, herbs and spices, citrus fruits and fruits, caramel and even whipped cream. But we must take into account that the alcohol content in grog is much higher than in mulled wine, so it is advisable to use it with great caution. To prepare grog we need 50 g of tea leaves, 0.75-1 liters of vodka, 0.75-1 liters of water and 200-250 g of sugar. The technology for brewing the drink is simple: boil 1-2 glasses of water, add the same amount of vodka and sugar, simmer everything over low heat for 5 minutes, brew tea in the remaining water in the usual way, let it brew. Pour the strained ready-made tea and the remaining slightly warmed vodka into the hot syrup and stir.

Punch

The method of preparing punch is simple and resembles the now familiar mulled wine and grog. In an enamel or ceramic bowl, heat the wine to 70 degrees, adding sugar, honey and spices. Some citrus fruits are cut into small pieces, the juice is squeezed out of the rest. Heat the vessel in which the drink will be served - this can be done by pouring boiling water into it. Rum and strained juice are poured into a hot vessel, pieces of fruit are placed and hot strained wine is added. Served hot, of course. For punch with lemon and orange you will need: 0.5 l of rum, 1 l of water, 250 g of sugar, 0.75 l of dry white wine, 2 oranges, 2 lemons.

Toddy

Very popular in the West, Toddy is very similar to the above drinks, with the only difference being that it is usually prepared and served in a separate glass - this is a “personal drink”. Heat the glass, then add 1 tsp to it. sugar, 100 ml very hot boiled water, 60 ml of cognac, rum or whiskey, a cinnamon stick, a little lemon juice, grated ginger root and a spoon of honey. And if you do the same thing, only without the alcoholic ingredient, after a few hours you get a healthy and invigorating drink, energizing and supporting immunity.
