Preparation
Step 1
Combine ingredients in a large pot and bring to a simmer. Do not allow mixture to boil. Heat for 20 minutes and serve. I normally just serve it out of the pot. Most people ask for a refill before it would be too cool.
This is modification of various recipes I have found from the web. This is the one my friends and I like.
Traditionalists will say to serve it in pewter mugs. I don't have any so I use ceramic mugs. No one gets burned and the aroma will condense in the mug.
