Based on the research I just did on the internet, Compot would be the currect answer, because it is a traditional Eastern European/ slavic beverage and there isn`t any other word for it as far as I know, however there is a traditional drink as a winter drink in Eastern Europe and America which is called Mulled wine, made with hot wine and spices and sweeteners. I hope this helps

We don’t have an exact word. Some types of cordial are made from boiled fruit, but not all. Fruit compote is stewed fruit in syrup. It is a desert though. Often more solid than juices.

“Compote” is the correct term.
A compote is fruit cooked in liquid (often with sugar and spices) and served as a dish or drink.
“Stewed fruit” is more general and usually refers to soft fruit cooked and eaten as food, not specifically as a drink.

Neither of those terms would be understood to be a drink in English by themselves. Both are food terms and are desserts. I don't think a word for a drink made from boiled fruit exists. But if you're translating something, you could use the word 'compote' and the verb 'drink'. You can only drink a liquid so it'd be understood as a drink rather than a food.
