Baker Bettie: Wassail


Okay, let the Christmas cooking marathon begin!  This is recipe #1, for a delicious drink to keep everyone warm while the rest of the goodies are cooking.  Because you add the alcohol to each individual serving, the main slow cooker stash stays child-safe.  Pretty darn tasty.  And easy.  I'm all about easy this time of year.

Wassail
From Baker Bettie blog

½ gallon apple cider
3 cups pineapple juice
2 oranges, sliced into rounds
⅓ cup honey
4 cinnamon sticks
1 tablespoon whole cloves
1 tablespoon allspice berries
Bourbon, for serving

In a slow cooker, combine all ingredients except for bourbon. Set to HIGH for 2 hours. After 2 hours, set the crockpot to LOW and allow it to sit until and during serving time. When ready to serve, add about a shot of bourbon to each serving, if desired.

Makes 12 servings
