How to set a cookie age without using a framework in Node.js?

I cannot find any information on setting the age of a cookie without using an external module. I know how to set the cookie but not its age and want to do it without the use of a library.

Any help would be much appreciated.

response.writeHead(200, {
'Set-Cookie':'sesh=wakadoo; expires='+new Date(new Date().getTime()+86409000).toUTCString()
});

This will set the expiry date of 1 day for the cookie
