That depends: Most modern recipes differ greatly from anything that the original Anglo saxon holiday toasting drink might have been likened to. Availability of spices and fresh fruits and the desire to create a drink with a higher alcohol content then the original had has given inovators free license to use their personal creativity. The essentials are a combination of Brown Ale, Spices, Apples or Apple cider, lemon zest, port, a sweetner and heat. Try the following:
In a large saucepan, combine 1 pint of ale, 1 pint cider and the remaining ingredients and bring to a low simmer for at least 30 minutes stirring regularly. Shortly before serving add the remaining ale and cider. Serve hot in a preheated cup or tankard. Serves 6-8. Much of the alcohol will have been removed during the heating process. For a higher alcohol bang add a shot of Calvados to each cup.
Waes Hael!

To drink.
Wassail is a mixed drink, sort of like a punch, that traditionally contains some alcoholic beverage as one of the ingredients. The bowl in which it is served is called a wassail bowl. The history of wassail reaches back to at least the 1500s, and wassail bowls in that time period were usually made of wood that had been turned on a lathe to make the bowl form.From Encyclopædia Britannica: vessel generally made of wood and often mounted in silver, used on ceremonial occasions for drinking toasts. The word wassail derives from Old Norse ves heill,meaning "be well, and in good health." The name has come to be generally applied to any bowl from which a toast is drunk, as well as to the actual drink itself.
