Notes
Easily adjust to taste: add more vodka for a stronger punch or swap in sparkling water or ginger ale for lighter fizz. Add white rum for a tropical version, or use extra juice for a mocktail. Always taste and tweak before serving. Add sparkling and fizzy ingredients last for best bubbles. Garnish with fresh fruit and mint for a festive touch.
