Ukrainian winter punch...Uzvar!

From Anna, a teacher and commenter from Ukraine. BTW orc's are ruzzian soldiers.
This recipe takes advantage of dried fruits and warming spices to get through the winter months when fresh produce is hard to come by.
Some add sugar, some don't. Some add spices, some don't.. Some add brandy or wine, some don't
Its very flexible...

Just a mix of dried fruits with some spies simmered in water until soft.
Very popular.
