How to Make Dr Jack's Wassail
- In a large saucepan, combine 1 cup hard cider, 1/2 cup apple juice, 1/4 cup orange juice, 2 cinnamon sticks, 5 whole cloves, and 1/2 cup mixed hard candies (e.g., Jolly Ranchers, cinnamon hard candies).
- Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat. Reduce heat to low and gently simmer for 30 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
- Remove from heat and let steep for 10 minutes.
- Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a serving pitcher to remove the spices and candies.
- Stir in 1/4 cup of sugar (adjust to your preferred sweetness).
- Serve warm in mugs, garnished with an orange slice or cinnamon stick, if desired.
