Break out the mugs and make this hot, spiced, fruity tea. The combo of sweet cranberry juice with cinnamon, cloves and oranges makes the coldest winter day feel just a little warmer.

3 pieces cinnamon sticks (2 inches long)
12 whole cloves
1 cup sugar

directions
Combine the tea, cranberry juice, apple juice, cinnamon sticks, cloves, sugar, orange juice, and lemon juice in a large pan over medium heat. Bring to a boil. Turn off the heat then carefully pour the wassail into a heatproof punch bowl. Float the orange and lemon slices in the bowl.

If you make this in the slow cooker it works. Leave it for an hour on high before leaving it on low. If you keep it on low you can serve it warm. There is nothing like a hot cup of fruit punch on a cold winters day

Have been serving this wassail at Christmas time for over 40 years. I got it from my mother-in-law and have passed it on to all my girls. It's quick and easy.

Have made this for more than one holiday crowd. Everyone loves it and always asks for the recipe. For a nice twist, add a shot of spiced rum to each mug.
