The blueberry and cranberry juices give this a festive colour. While it tastes mildly alcoholic, there is no alcohol content, which makes it an ideal drink for Christmas guests who are driving.

1 litre smooth orange juice

2 litres apple juice

1 litre cranberry and blueberry juice

2 dessertspoons light soft brown sugar

6 cloves

1 cinnamon stick

Ginger, freshly grated, to taste

Simply combine all the ingredients in a large pan and leave to infuse over night.

When you come to serve it, it is very important that the mixture does not boil but is warmed thoroughly.
