Wassail began as a spiced wine that resembled Roman recipes that survived the Middle Ages.  Recipes began to vary with English production of ale, mead, and cider.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHand Blended + Packaged in \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eCharleston, South Carolina\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOliver Pluff \u0026amp; Company is a fine purveyor of teas, toddies, wassails, coffee and cacao.
