Wassail – My Grandma’s Recipe!

Grandma's Wassail Recipe

Talking to my Grandma sometimes makes me want to wet my pants.

Our conversations go something like this…
[quote]Me:  “Grandma, I’m calling for a recipe… I don’t have your Wassail recipe.”
Grandma:  “Waffle???”
Me:  “No, Wassail!  Wassail!”
Grandma laughing:  “I don’t make waffles.”
Me bent over from laughing back so hard and glad I have a strong bladder:  “Grandma!  Wassail!  Wassail!  Wasssssail!”
Grandma (not sure about her bladder at this point):  “Oh, Wassail!  I thought you said Waffles!  Hold on – I’ll get it.”[/quote]
I love my Grandma – she makes me laugh so hard plus her wassail is AWESOME!

She has made it for me for many years.  It is great for those cold winter days and nights.
This year I will try to make it in the crock pot!  YUM!

    Precious, precious story! Do you tie up the spices in cheesecloth or loose? Last year we attended a party where the hostess had her wassail in a crockpot and served it to us herself. We were all spitting out spices. LOL. Maybe if not tied up in something, then it should be strained??? LOL

    btw, on Fridays, I host “Freezer Foods Fridays”, you might be interested in!

    That sounds absolutely delicious. Your grandma sounds like a character! Love the back-story! We always make our Fall Cider in a crockpot. I’m going to have to try your grandma’s wassail for our holiday open house! Thank you!

    Wassail sounds like an interesting blend of juices. It looks like something worth trying.
