How to Make Wassail Old English Favorite

  1. In a large saucepan, combine 4 cups apple cider, 1 cup orange juice, ½ cup pineapple juice, ¼ cup lemon juice, 10 whole cloves, 1 cinnamon stick, and ½ cup Splenda (or honey/sugar to taste).
  2. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Reduce heat to low and let it simmer for 20-25 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and deepen.
  3. Remove from heat. For a rustic presentation, serve directly from the saucepan. For a smoother drink, strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a heat-safe pitcher, teapot, or slow cooker. If using a slow cooker, keep on low to maintain warmth.
  4. Garnish each serving with an orange slice, cinnamon stick, or a sprinkle of ground cinnamon. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
