Cranberry Wassail image

I got this recipe from my mother in law. I believe she got it years ago while she and her husband were living in Germany. I think its pretty good and I'm sure you could add alcohol to your taste if you wanted.

Time 1h15m

Yield 4-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 family-size tea bags or 3 regular tea bags
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1 1/4 teaspoons cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon allspice
1 (1 lb) can jellied cranberry sauce
1/2 cup orange juice

5 1/2 cups water

Steps:

  • In a paper coffee filter place the nutmeg, cinnamon and allspice. Tie top together with string from teabag.
  • Steep teabag(s) and spices in 2 1/2 cups water in a sauce pan for about five minutes.
  • In a large bowl combine cranberry sauce, 1 1/2 cups boiling water and 3/4 cup sugar. You can do it by hand but an electric mixer saves time and energy. Mix until there are no lumps.
  • Add orange juice, realemon juice and another 1 1/2 cups boiling water.
  • Remove teabag and spices from sauce pan. Add the tea and cranberry mixtures together. You can use a Dutch oven or a crock pot.
  • You can add more water to dilute the mixture to taste. It will keep for about 10 days, though its never lasted that long.
