Wassail (Warm Christmas Cider)

·        2 quarts apple cider

·        2 cups orange juice

·        1 (46 ounce) can pineapple juice

·        2 (3 inch) cinnamon sticks

·        1 tablespoon whole cloves

·        1/2 cup honey

In a large stock pot over medium heat, combine the apple cider, orange juice, pineapple juice, cinnamon sticks, cloves and honey. Bring to a boil, then simmer over low heat, or transfer to a slow cooker to keep warm while serving. Strain out cinnamon sticks and cloves before serving.  Cloves may be placed in a cheesecloth bundle for easy removal.  A cinnamon stick in each cup makes a festive garnish.

Perfect to serve Christmas Eve or after caroling!
