My wassail recipe has been a holiday tradition in our family for many years. Not only does it make the house smell wonderful, it is a tasty and warming beverage for those chilly days. The recipe was given to me by a co-worker many years ago.

Time 1h5m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 quarts apple cider
1 quart cranberry juice
2 tablespoons allspice
2 cinnamon sticks
1 pint whiskey (optional)

Steps:

  • Combine all above ingredients (except whiskey) in a large pot or large coffee pot and bring to a boil.
  • Allow to simmer at least 1 hour.
  • Strain and add whiskey if you desire.
  • Garnish with sliced oranges and serve hot.
  • Enjoy!
  • Note: I always use cheesecloth to tie the Allspice and Cinnamon Sticks into which allows me less straining.
  • I recycled the glass jugs that the cider came in and use them to refrigerate any leftovers.
  • My family enjoys having wassail the entire holiday season, so we normally double or triple the recipe.
