If you like, you can add cloves, mace, sliced ginger, and sliced nutmeg.

Put all these in a jug, cork tightly, shake well and set out in the sun for five or six days, remembering to shake it well each day. Then boil it for fifteen minutes, and when nearly cool, strain, bottle, and seal the bottles."
