Cranberry Orange Christmas Punch
Ingredients
- 4 cups cranberry juice chilled
- 2 cups orange juice chilled
- 2 cups pineapple juice chilled
- 1 2 liter bottle ginger ale, chilled
- 1 cup frozen cranberries
- 1 orange thinly sliced into wheels
- 4 fresh rosemary sprigs for garnish
Instructions
- Stir the cranberry juice, orange juice, and pineapple juice together in a large pitcher or punch bowl until fully combined.
- Chill the juice mixture for at least 1 hour, or until it feels cold to the touch all the way through; this keeps the ginger ale from going flat the moment it hits the bowl.
- Just before serving, pour in the chilled ginger ale slowly and give the punch one gentle stir, just enough to combine without knocking the fizz out of it.
- Float the frozen cranberries and orange wheels on top of the punch.
- Ladle the punch into cups or rocks glasses filled with ice.
- Garnish each glass with a rosemary sprig and a few extra cranberries.
Good to Know
Make the juice base up to a day ahead and keep it refrigerated; add the ginger ale and garnish only at serving time so the fizz survives.
