This recipe came from a former co-worker of my Mom's. The ingredients were sloppily written on the back of an old envelope at what I am assuming was a very fun Christmas party. We have been making it, happily, now for close to thirty years. If you are looking for a warm drink to serve or bring to a holiday party, consider this. Spiking is only optional!
Joyce's Joy Juice

3½ cups STRONG black tea
5 cups water
4 cinnamon sticks
1 tablespoon of whole cloves
1 (2") piece of fresh ginger, peeled and sliced
Combine all ingredients in a large stock pot. Bring to a boil and allow to simmer for approx. 30 minutes-1 hour, depending on taste and urgency.
Remove cinnamon, cloves and ginger.
Serve with brandy.
