    After add the drained water, add another liter of water, add all the spices and bring the sbiten to a boil. Then strain it from the cranberry pulp and leave to cool. I add honey to a still warm, but not hot broth, since in hot it will lose all its useful properties. Sbiten turns sour. If you like sweeter, then the amount of honey should be increased. I do not use sugar in the preparation of this recipe.

Sbitnem is an old Russian drink, consumed more often in hot form. Its main ingredients are honey, spring water and spices, and vegetable ingredients are often added to enhance the taste and beneficial qualities.

There are quite a lot of recipes for making sbitnya, however, they differ only in the set of seasonings and additional components. One of the most delicious and healthy drinks is honey cranberry.
In addition to the fact that a hot drink warms perfectly in the cold, cranberry sbiten is appreciated for the following useful properties:

elimination of toxins;
normalization of blood glucose levels;
fighting inflammation;
