Christmas Wassail

First of all, let me apologize.
This post will have no pictures.
Also, i'm not sure that a drink can
*technically*
be considered a dessert.
HOWEVER,
this recipe is SO good!
It makes me warm just thinking about it!
I did give it out as a neighbor gift a few years ago
if that counts.
And if you are having a family christmas party...
this would be something fun to do for it!
Hot Wassail
1 gallon apple juice
2/3 cup brown sugar
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. whole cloves
2 cinnamon sticks, broken in half
dash of nutmeg
dash of salt
1/2 cup tang powder
1/2 cup country time lemonade powder
2 quarts water
In a large crock pot, combine the dry ingredients.
Add the apple juice and water and stir until dry ingredients are combined.
Serve warm.
For neighbor gifts,
I put everything....except the brown sugar,
in a baggie.
I had a tag telling them what to add to it.
It really smelled good too!
