How to Make Hot Wassail
- In a large saucepan, combine 2 quarts apple cider, 1 cup orange juice, 1/2 cup cranberry juice, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup honey, 2 cinnamon sticks, 10 whole cloves, and 1 orange, studded with cloves.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally to dissolve the sugar and honey.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer for 15-20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and deepen. Do not let it boil aggressively.
- Remove from heat and let steep for 5 minutes before serving.
- Strain the wassail into a warmed pitcher or heat-safe serving vessel to remove solids before serving.
- Serve hot, optionally garnished with orange slices, cinnamon sticks, or cranberries.
