Winters Here
Happy Solstice friends! It’s officially winter now. We’re celebrating the solstic with friends and a fire and some Wassail.
To make Wassail you’ll need:
3 apples
3 oz brown sugar
2 pints cider
1/2 pint white wine
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ginger strips
Chop and core the apples, heat in an oven with the sugar and half the cider for 30 minutes. Place into a pan, add the spices, and ginger, place over a low heat on the stove and bring to a simmer for 5 minutes. Take off the heat and add in the rest of the cider and the wine. Makes enough for 8 people.
I think that this space will be a little quieter than usual over the next week or so…. This mama is on need of some downtime and some relaxing with my family! I’ll be popping in from time to time, but for now, solstice blessings xx
