Hey, here is my mom's (and grandma and great-grandma, etc.) recipe for wassail.
1 Gal apple cider/juice
1 pt. orange juice
1 c. lemon juice
4 c. water
2 c. sugar
in 'spice bag': (or any semi-porous cloth wrapping; I've even used an old t-shirt)
24 whole cloves
12 allspice berries
6 sticks cinnamon
2 small-ish pieces whole ginger
Mix all the juice stuff together, drop in spice bag, simmer at least 1 hour. (I usually let it simmer for more like 4-6 hours, but sometimes this leads to a very strong concentration. If this happens to you, just add a little water).

Mmmm, that sounds good. I love Christmas day because my dad will get a whole pot of his own concoction going on the stove and it smells soooo good. One of my favorite holiday smells
