Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups pineapple juice
- 4 cups apple cider
- 2 cups orange juice
- 0.25 cups brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 8 pieces whole cloves
- 1 inch piece fresh ginger (sliced)
- 2 pieces cinnamon sticks
- 1 slices fresh pineapple (optional, for garnish)
- 4 slices orange slices (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a large pot over medium heat, combine the pineapple juice, apple cider, and orange juice. Stir gently to mix.
Add the brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg to the pot. Stir until the sugar dissolves completely.
Tie the whole cloves and sliced ginger in a small piece of cheesecloth or use a tea infuser to create a spice bundle. Add it to the pot along with the cinnamon sticks.
Reduce the heat to low and allow the mixture to simmer gently for 30 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
After simmering, remove the spice bundle and cinnamon sticks from the pot.
Ladle the warm pineapple wassail into mugs or heatproof glasses. Garnish with fresh pineapple slices and orange slices, if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy the warm, spiced aroma and tropical flavor!
