🎁Christmas Punch Recipe

Here’s my recipe for Christmas Punch using Canada Dry® Ginger Ale. I was proud of myself for creating a new way to garnish the Christmas Punch by using fresh cranberries and fresh mint leaves to create a Holly Garnish on top of an orange slice.

Enjoy sipping your Christmas Punch!

My kids were impressed with the fruity flavor of this Christmas Punch and my husband thought that the Apple Cherry juice added a really nice flavor to it. Now I don’t own a punch bowl, so I used a clear glass trifle bowl which was almost as large as a punch bowl. The rest of the punch went into a glass pitcher that fits nicely in my refrigerator. The advantage to using the trifle bowl as a punch bowl is that I was able to put this adorable Santa Mini-Tree Skirt around it as a decoration (best seen in my top photo).

Punch is such a fun beverage to make because you can get really creative with what you mix together. I love the flavor and sparkle that Canada Dry® Ginger Ale adds to it. Because punch is best served with lots of ice to keep it cool during your festivities, you want to be careful not to dilute it too much. My rule of thumb when making punch is to use my Canada Dry® Ginger Ale as my water for my frozen juices. So I’m not adding any water to my punch (besides the melting ice cubes). This gives the punch just the right strength so that it’s delicious to drink immediately after mixing or after a few hours on ice.
