It is January 05, 2026. This evening, I am celebrating Twelfth Night. Have you heard the song "The Twelve Days Of Christmas"? This is the Twelfth Day. In honor of the occasion, I have brewed a traditional 1700s-style wassail drink. The ingredients include water, cane sugar, cranberries, blueberries, apples, orange, nutmeg, clove, ginger, cinnamon and cinnamon sticks. This drink is vegan and organic.
First, I boiled the water, sugar and cranberries as if I were to make cranberry sauce. I did just that and then added water to the top of the pot creating cranberry juice. I then transferred that juice to a pot containing the remaining ingredients.
As it was boiling, the aroma was magnificent. The stairwell nearby smelled like an all-natural air freshener. The taste is just as wonderful.
I thank all of you for watching, and I wish you a very Happy Twelfth Night.
