Wassail (Middle English “wæs hæl”: “be you healthy”) refers both to the salute “Waes Hail” and to the drink of wassail, a hot mulled cider drunk as part of wassailing, an English ritual intended to ensure a good apple harvest the following year. Historically, the drink is a mulled cider, mulled beer, or mead, made with sugar, cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg. This limited time offering is out just in time for Halloween and is made with cinnamon sticks, cut and sifted ginger, and nutmeg. Add spiced rum or bourbon to wet your whistle when howlin’ at the moon.
