Notes

Mix together all ingredients in a 2 quart pitcher and let steep overnight in the refrigerator with a straining lid. Pour into cups and warm in the microwave until just shy of boiling (don't eat any of the spices). For parties, pour all of the punch into a crock-pot and warm on low until just beginning to steam and serve with a ladle. Again, avoid the spices.
