Wassail Punch (Non-Alcoholic) - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 quart water
4 spiced tea bags (I use Celestial Seasonings Mandarin Orange Spice)
1 gallon apple cider
2 quarts orange juice
1 quart cranberry juice
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 orange
12 whole cloves
4 cinnamon sticks (4 inch)
1/2 cup small red-hot candies

Preparation

Place water in a very large pot and bring to a boil.
Steep tea bags in hot water for 4 minutes; remove tea bags.
Add cider, orange juice, cranberry juice, and sugar to a boil, stirring to dissolve sugar.
When it comes to a boil, reduce heat to a simmer.
Stick the cloves into the orange and drop into the pot along with the cinnamon, and red-hot candies.
Simmer the punch for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Serve hot.
