B. Apples
Boy, is it good too! I love any cider- so good for the ever-cooler days and nights!
Got this from a website:
"This Old English and Irish punch which dates from the Middle Ages, probably gets its name from the whiteness of the roasted apples as they float in the cider."

A ring was buried in it, and whoever found the ring in his portion would supposedly be married in a year, or receive good luck.
