Simple and Festive Holiday Spiked Punch
Spiked punch is so easy to make and is quite the crowd pleaser. My simple and festive spiked punch is a an easy drink to serve at your holiday party, especially if you are planning on a lot of attendees. With just a few ingredients, it not only is easy to make but looks gorgeous when presented at your party. Here is how to make a simple and festive holiday spiked punch.
First, be sure to have a large punch bowl set for serving. Alternatively, you can use large pitchers or beverage dispensers (just be careful as the cranberries can clog some dispensers). I like using a punch bowl because you can control how many berries you get in your drink.
For this drink you will need:
- 1 64 ounce jug of cranberry apple juice
- 2 bottles of sparkly pink moscato
- 1 liter of sparkling water
- 2 cups of vodka
- 2 limes
- 1 bunch of fresh mint
- 2 cups of fresh cranberries (frozen)
- fresh rosemary for garnish
To create the spiked punch just add in all the liquids and stir. The sparkling water is optional, it helps cut the sweetness of the punch. You can add more or less to taste, if you feel the drink is overly sweet or not sweet enough. Alternatively, you can also add more or less vodka to taste and preference. Slice both of the limes and add to the punch, then add all of the frozen cranberries (which are like festive ice cubes!). Finally, add the mint leaves and stir.
For serving, fill a glass 2/3 full of the spiked punch, and then add a sprig of rosemary for garnish. Be sure there are cranberries, mint leaves, and a lime slice in each glass for serving.
This drink is so simple to make and everyone at my parties always enjoys it. I love how festive this looks served at a holiday party, with the greens and reds from the cranberries and rosemary and lime and mint.
Everyone is sure to enjoy this drink at your next holiday party!
