best night of the season so far!


Amazing Wassail recipe from my sister-in-law Cari... via my mother-in-law Kris I think?
1 can (46 oz) apple juice
1 cinnamon stick
1/2 tea nutmeg
1 can (6 oz) frozen lemonade concentrate
1 can (6 oz) frozen orange juice concentrate
1 can (46 oz) pineapple juice
1/2 cup honey or sugar
1/4 cup lemon juice
orange slices (optional)

Heat apple juice, cinnamon stick, and nutmeg to boiling point. Reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Add lemonade and orange juice concentrates, pineapple juice, honey, and lemon juice; simmer. Remove cinnamon stick and serve hot. Garnish with orange slices, if desired. If beverage simmers a long time and becomes too thick or concentrated, water may be added. After serving, can give cinnamon sticks to sit in drink.



ENJOY
