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. Oliver Pluff & Company Wine Spices is made with orange peel, ginger, cinnamon, allspice, and cloves.
