So what does this Winter Wassail co*cktail taste like?
This drink is primarily fruity in flavor thanks to the balance of juice with peach schnapps. The vodka doesn't add flavor, but it does add strength. After you take a sip, you'll notice the fruit followed by the spices that immediately follow them.

Tips on Making Winter Wassail co*cktail
I like to keep my drink recipes simple. I have never found a co*cktail book I love because of all the specialized ingredients required. If you realize you don't have peach schnapps, then triple sec will work. It just brings out a different fruity characteristic.
This drink is best served chilled. If you are making wassail from scratch, this is a good way to use up any leftovers.
