The scent of Apple cider really takes me back to my childhood. It is sometimes very hard to find real apple cider down here in Florida.

When I was a child growing up in Long Island every Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner I could count on an ice cold glass of real apple cider with our meal. Christmas Wassail is another great way to enjoy apple cider.

Christmas Eve when families come together to celebrate the holiday you can serve this Crock Pot Christmas Wassail recipe straight from the slow cooker.

Set the slow cooker up in a safe area, stack some Christmas mugs near by and the family can serve themselves a mug full of Christmas delight.
