SATURDAY – DECEMBER 13, 2014

Wassail is an old English custom when welcoming guests into their home at Christmas time.  The Wassail bowl was set out and each guest received a cup of the spicy warm brew. What a great way to carry on an age-old holiday tradition!

If you don’t care for the spiced punch, just make it and enjoy the warm, Christmas aroma that will fill your home!

Hot Christmas Wassail
2 quarts Apple Juice
2 c. Orange Juice
1 c. Lemon Juice
1-1/2 c. Pineapple Juice
Sugar or honey (Start with 1/2 cup sugar)
Cloves
Cinnamon sticks
Orange/Lemon rings
Combine juices and sugar to taste. Put in crock pot. Put 2-3 cloves in sides of rings. Add cinnamon sticks. Heat through and enjoy!
