Essence Drain/Contagion can they ignite?

Is it possible in any way to ignite enemies with Essence Drain/Contagion combo?

Any Fire Damage can Ignite as long as you have some Chance to Ignite and/or Critical Strike Chance (Crits have 100% chance to inflict elemental status ailment).

So as long as you add Fire damage to a spell's Hit, you can Ignite.

Switch Fire for Cold if you use The Three Dragons unique hat.

That's it, how to add Fire damage to Essence Drain/Contagion?
Besides Herald of ice with Three Dragons.

Wands and Daggers can roll added fire damage to spells. Anger aura also adds fire damage to spells.

mantra of flames jewel or added fire damage to spells (rare caster weapons mod), as well as Anger aura will add fire damage to essence drain hits. Elementalist's Shaper of Desolation perk will make all hit damage ignite, no matter damage type

contagion does not hit so there is no way

however why would you want to ignite with these spells?
