Uzvar - Ukraine

Uzvar is Ukraine's version of "winter punch" and a staple beverage at Christmas tables across the country. Its preparation varies, but it typically includes dried fruits such as apples, prunes, dried pears, spices like star anise, cinnamon and nutmeg, and citrus zest. The ingredients are cooked into a sort of compote (stewed fruit) and may include the addition of brandy and honey for extra sweetness. It's usually served cold or at room temperature but may be served hot, as desired.
