Learn how to make wassail cocktails with real apple cider, ginger, lemon, spices and, of course, bourbon. Wassails are perfect for warming up on cold days!
Ingredient:
4 cups apple cider (or unfiltered apple juice, doctored up with warm spices like cinnamon, nutmeg and allspice)
½ inch nub of fresh ginger, peeled and grated or finely minced
2 lemons, sliced
1 cinnamon stick
3 star anise (optional, but they’re pretty!)
½ vanilla bean, slit down the middle with the insides scooped out (or ¼ ounce vanilla extract)
Bourbon (plan on about 1 ½ ounces per drink. I used Jim Beam)
