Christmas Wassail


When I was little, a big part of my family's christmas was making a ridiculous ammount of wassail and bringing it to all of our friends and neighbors (occasionally singing here we come a wassailing). It is best served very hot.
Simmer 10 minutes and strain:
2 c sugar
5 c water
12 cloves
4 cinnamon sticks
4 allspice berries
1 T fresh or crystallized ginger
Add:
8 c apple cider (½ gal)
6 c orange juice (12 oz frozen reconstituted)
2 c lemon juice
