    Notes

    A few tips to customize and perfect your punch:
    For a sweeter punch, add a splash of pineapple juice.
    Prefer less fizz? Use sparkling water instead of soda.
    For a kid-friendly version, keep mint leaves separate to avoid strong flavors.
    Make fancy ice cubes by freezing cranberries or mint in them.
    Store leftovers in the fridge and enjoy within a couple of days.
