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\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShelf Life:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3 Years\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oliver Pluff \u0026 Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51641769853206,"sku":"1502-JP","price":9.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1293\/4591\/files\/3_5a65f5b6-1216-40ab-9053-db29bdfb284d.png?v=1785770080","url":"https:\/\/www.macycarlisle.com\/products\/wassail-wine-spice","provider":"Macy Carlisle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
