To begin, add 2 cloves, 1 star anise , a good grind of nutmeg and a little cinnamon to the water in a small saucepan. Bring to a very gentle simmer for 10 minutes, then remove from the heat and allow to cool. Pass through a fine strainer and set aside
Whisk the infused water with all of the other ingredients until you achieve a nice silky texture, then pour into a clean, sterilised bottle and refrigerate until completely chilled
