I H    Hope you are enjoying the Season of Light!  The tradition of welcoming neighbors in for a hot drink  toast to the new year has been around for over one thousand years.  Wassail!  Good Health! Here's a recipe for your slow cooker that you can keep going all day...
                         
  4 cups hot brewed tea
4 cups cranberry juice
4 cups unsweetened apple juice
2 cups orange juice
1 cup sugar
3/4 cup lemon juice
3 cinnamon sticks (3 inches)
12 whole cloves

In a 5-qt. slow cooker, combine the first six ingredients. Place the cinnamon sticks and cloves on a double thickness of cheesecloth; bring up corners of cloth and tie with string to form a bag. Add to slow cooker.
Cover and cook on high for 1 hour or until punch begins to boil. Discard spice bag. Serve warm. 
Yield: 3-1/2 quarts.
