Equipment

A large punch bowl is essential. It should be big enough to hold all the ingredients with room to stir.
You’ll also need a ladle for serving. This helps with easy pouring and keeps things tidy.
Measuring cups and spoons will ensure the right quantities.
Lastly, grab a sharp knife and cutting board for preparing fresh garnishes.

Ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need to make this punch:

4 cups of cranberry juice
2 cups of pineapple juice
2 cups of orange juice
1 cup of vodka
½ cup of ginger ale
Sliced oranges and cranberries for garnish

These ingredients create a fruit-forward taste with a fizzy twist. The vodka adds a nice kick, while the ginger ale provides a fun, bubbly texture. Fresh garnishes add that festive touch we all love. 🍊

Instructions

Follow these easy steps to make the punch:

Add the cranberry, pineapple, and orange juices to the punch bowl.
Pour in the vodka and stir well until mixed.
Gradually add the ginger ale. Stir gently to keep the bubbles intact.
Add sliced oranges and cranberries for a vibrant look.

Mix, serve in glasses over ice, and enjoy with friends and family. It’s quick, simple, and perfect for any holiday party! 🎉

Notes

To tailor the taste to your liking:

For a non-alcoholic version, skip the vodka and add more ginger ale or sparkling water.

Tips & Tricks

Making a holiday spiked punch is easy and fun. Here are a few tips that I always use!

Chill all ingredients before mixing. It helps the flavors blend better. 🧊
If you’re using fruits, freeze them ahead of time. They act as ice cubes and won’t water down your punch! 🍓🍊

I like to add a splash of sparkling water or soda right before serving. It gives the punch a refreshing fizz! 🥤

Use festive garnishes. Mint leaves, citrus slices, or cranberries make it look fancy. 🎄

Using different juices can change the flavor. Try pineapple with cranberry or orange with apple cider. 🍍🍎

Store leftovers in a covered container and enjoy it the next day. The flavors often taste even better! 🍹
