Wassail Mulling Spice

How can this season get even cozier, even warmer, even more delicious? Add a pinch of Wassail, a unique yet familiar mulling spice blend, and see where it transports you. You might find yourself warm inside after a cold evening sledding, relaxing by a woodstove warming your hands and face while you cradle a mug of spiced cider. Or perhaps you need a nudge getting into the wintry spirit because you live in a place with palm trees — Wassail Mulling Blend is the answer!

We collaborated with our friends at Angry Orchard to make this rich, vanilla-scented blend to complement baked goods, wines and (of course!) cider. Whole ground Nyanza vanilla, nutmeg, allspice, royal cinnamon, cloves and star anise make this jar of toasty-warm comfort bold, round and sweet — and a couple notches above any mulling spice we've ever tried.

The Wassail Mulling blend is named for a tradition born in West Country, England, to celebrate the end of one harvest and usher in the next. We will gladly raise a mug to that!
