The holidays mean getting together with loved ones and spending quality time while simultaneously trying NOT to tear each other’s faces off. My solution? Spike the punch! Just kidding… maybe. No matter the company, big holiday get-togethers aren’t complete without punch! For our Friendsgiving last week I threw together a cranberry-ginger and citrus infused punch that was just the right blend of sweet, tart, and bubbly! Pour a glass to celebrate good times (or pour one or two to drown out the negative comments from family about your ‘lifestyle choices’) and enjoy yourself this holiday season! 😉

Ingredients:
4-5 cups of ice (you can also just leave punch room temp and add ice to glasses so it doesn’t get watered down)
1 (750ml) bottle of curacao or other orange liquor
1 (2 liter) bottle of Canada Dry Cranberry Ginger Ale (if you can’t find this kind just pour in half a bottle of regular ginger ale and half a bottle of cranberry juice)
10-12oz grapefruit juice
3 limes, sliced into thin wheels
2 lemons, sliced into thin wheels
1 (750ml) bottle of champagne
Fresh cranberries for garnish
Add ice, curacao, cranberry ginger ale, grapefruit juice, lime slices, and lemon slices to a large punch bowl. Stir carefully to mix. Top with champagne, garnish, and serve!
Enjoy responsibly!
