Wassel

January 13, 2016 by Tiffany

Welcome to Seeing Sunshine! I'm so glad you've stopped by! Make sure you never miss a post by subscribing via email. This post may contain affiliate links, so be sure to view my disclosure policy.

My mom and dad used to have a big fall party every year at their house. We would roast hot dogs and marshmallows, sitting on hay bales around a bonfire. We’d play volleyball before it got dark, and once the sun set we would go on a hayride. My mom always made wassel — a warm drink that I couldn’t get enough of.

Wassel is delicious when the weather starts to get cold. Right now, it is freezing in Indiana so wassel is the perfect beverage. I made it for the first time for Travis while he was home visiting, and I made it for his family too. Everybody enjoyed it. Wassel is often served with alcohol but we always makeĀ a virgin version.

Wassel

Here’s what you’ll need:

  • Apple cider
  • Cranberry juice
  • Cinnamon sticks
  • Orange

Wassel Ingredients

Mix all the ingredients together in a pot or slow cooker. Let it simmer on low for a couple hours. Serve it warm and enjoy!
