Ingredients
- 4 cups apple cider
- 1 ½ cups orange juice
- 6 oz can of pineapple juice
- 2 TBS lemon juice
- 3 TBS sugar
- ¼ cup mulling spices
Instructions
- Combine everything in a large pot; bring to a boil stirring often. (If you have a metal spice ball, use it, if not just throw it all in then pour through a strainer prior to serving or storing).
- Turn off the stove and let it sit for 30 minutes before reheating to serve.
- Serve it very warm almost like tea or coffee. You can make it ahead, refrigerate it and reheat as necessary. Wassail keeps well for 4 days. If you want to make it alcoholic add in some Brandy or Cognac to your taste.
- Accent pot or glasses/cups with an orange or lemon slice, a cinnamon stick, a star anise, allspice berries and or cloves.
Notes
To make your own mulling spice, combine 4 sticks of cinnamon, 3 long strips of orange rind, 1 TBS whole cloves and 1 TBS whole allspice berries.
Feel free to add your booze of choice to this recipe. Just be sure to add when warm. If you simmer the alcohol will burn off.
