In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt, thoroughly.
Whisk in cinnamon, clove, and ginger.
Mix dry ingredients into the wet ingredient, alternating with the water and buttermilk.
Stir just until flour is combined. (do not over stir or bread will not be fluffy)
Pour into prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
Bake on middle rack for 55-60 minutes ( or until cake tester inserted in center comes on with moist crumbs clinging to it)
Remove from oven and let cool in pan until warm (bread will continue cooking as it cools so be careful not to overbake
Once the pan is warm, remove bread and let cool completely on a cooling rack.

Drizzle glaze over completely cooled bread and allow to set before serving.
