Ingredients

  • 4 cups apple cider
  • 1 cup fresh squeezed orange juice
  • 4 tablespoons fresh squeezed lemon juice
  • 4 cinnamon sticks
  • 6 whole cloves, if using ground, use only 1/8 teaspoon  
  • 1/8 teaspoon allspice
  • 1 teaspoon fine chopped fresh ginger
  • 4 tablespoons Imperial Sugar Extra Fine Granulated Sugar

 

Directions

  1. Combine all ingredients excluding alcohol, if using, in a non-reactive saucepan.
  2. Bring to a boil and once boiling reduce to a very low simmer. The objective is to aromatize the liquid without drastically reducing/evaporating it. Simmer for 1 hour.
  3. Strain through a fine sieve.
  4. Pour 2 or 3 parts wassail in mugs or glasses and add one part of your favorite liquor or liqueur.
