Or how about picking up some locally brewed hard cider or beer?<\/p>\n<h3>You will need:<\/h3>\n<p><em>Evergreens (real or artificial)<\/em><br \/>\n<em>Floral wire<\/em><br \/>\n<em>Wassail, beer, or hard cider <\/em><br \/>\n<em>Bells, pans, whistles, etc. for making noise Small bird feeder filled with seed<\/em><br \/>\n<em>A pretty wassail bowl (optional) <\/em><\/p>\n<p>Elect someone from your family or friend group to lead the procession.<br \/>\n(This ritual can also be performed alone, though it is more fun worked as a group.) Twist the greens with floral wire to form a crown. This will be worn by the elected leader, who represents a Green Man or Green Woman character.<\/p>\n<p>Your leader will carry the wassail bowl, or whatever container holds the cider or beer bottles. All others will carry the noisemakers, which may include bells, whistles, pots and pans, and so on. Don\u2019t forget to have someone carry the filled bird feeder. As you make your way to the tree, bang those pots and shake those bells\u2014be as noisy as you please! Yell out for winter spirits to flee. Remember to make it fun\u2014dance about and make merry!<\/p>\n<p>Your elected king or queen will then lift the wassail bowl or open container and spill just a bit over the roots of your tree. As this is done, all say something like this:<\/p>\n<p><em>Health to thee, my [fill in type of tree] tree Steadfast upon the ground.<\/em><br \/>\n<em>Be it weather good or foul,<\/em><br \/>\n<em>May every sprig flourish well<\/em><br \/>\n<em>Upon your leafy crown.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Then have your elected leader take the bird feeder and hang it from a branch. As this is done, all say something like this:<\/p>\n<p><em>Hail thee birds who grace this tree,<\/em><br \/>\n<em>Your presence brings us cheer. <\/em><br \/>\n<em>We hope this offering of seed and mirth Eases your stay here.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Now everyone can cheer and share in the libation.<\/p>\n<h2>Wassail<\/h2>\n<p><em>4 small apples<\/em><br \/>\n<em>\u00bc cup brown sugar<\/em><br \/>\n<em>1 quart apple cider<\/em><br \/>\n<em>1 cup orange juice<\/em><br \/>\n<em>1 cup cranberry or pineapple juice<\/em><br \/>\n<em>\u00bd cup brandy (optional) <\/em><br \/>\n<em>6 allspice berries<\/em><br \/>\n<em>2 cinnamon sticks<\/em><br \/>\n<em>1 teaspoon grated nutmeg<\/em><br \/>\n<em>Dash ground cinnamon and ginger before serving (optional) Preheat the oven to 350\u00b0F.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Use a melon baller to scoop the cores out of the small apples. Set the apples on a cookie sheet and fill each one with approximately a tablespoon of brown sugar. Bake for 40 minutes. Pour apple cider, juices, and optional brandy into a stockpot and warm over medium-low heat. Cut a square of cheesecloth or muslin and place the spices on top. Tie it closed with cotton twine and float it in the mixture until it warms. Do not let the brew boil.<\/p>\n<p>When ready to serve, remove the spice bundle and float the baked apples. You may also add a dash of cinnamon and ginger to the bowl.[\/vc_column_text][vc_cta h2=&#8221;Subscribe!&#8221; txt_align=&#8221;center&#8221; style=&#8221;flat&#8221; color=&#8221;grey&#8221; add_button=&#8221;bottom&#8221; btn_title=&#8221;Subscribe Today!&#8221; btn_style=&#8221;flat&#8221; btn_color=&#8221;mulled-wine&#8221; btn_align=&#8221;center&#8221; btn_button_block=&#8221;true&#8221; btn_link=&#8221;url:https%3A%2F%2Fenchantedlivingmag.com%2Fcollections%2Fsubscribe|target:_blank|rel:nofollow&#8221;]<\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><em><i><img data-dominant-color=\"1f2225\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #1f2225;\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-9122 size-medium aligncenter not-transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/enchantedlivingmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/EL65_websingles-1-231x300.webp\" alt=\"Winter Witch Issue by Enchanted Living Magazine - The Year of the Witch 2023 #65\" width=\"231\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/enchantedlivingmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/EL65_websingles-1-231x300.webp 231w, https:\/\/enchantedlivingmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/EL65_websingles-1-789x1024.webp 789w, https:\/\/enchantedlivingmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/EL65_websingles-1-768x997.webp 768w, https:\/\/enchantedlivingmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/EL65_websingles-1-1183x1536.webp 1183w, https:\/\/enchantedlivingmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/EL65_websingles-1-1577x2048.webp 1577w, https:\/\/enchantedlivingmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/EL65_websingles-1-696x904.webp 696w, https:\/\/enchantedlivingmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/EL65_websingles-1-1068x1387.webp 1068w, https:\/\/enchantedlivingmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/EL65_websingles-1-1920x2493.webp 1920w, https:\/\/enchantedlivingmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/EL65_websingles-1-323x420.webp 323w, https:\/\/enchantedlivingmagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/EL65_websingles-1-scaled.webp 1971w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 231px) 100vw, 231px\" \/>Enchanted Living<\/i><\/em> is a quarterly print magazine that celebrates all things enchanted.\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><em><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Subscribe now and begin with our Winter Witch issue!<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/div>\n<p>[\/vc_cta]<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"[vc_column_text] Now that you have your new tree or shrub firmly planted in your garden, why not bless it with a new twist on an old-fashioned wassail ritual?
