Instructions
For the Maple Simple Syrup:
- Combine the water, maple syrup, brown sugar, spices, ginger, and thyme in a medium-saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat.
- Cook, stirring occasionally, until the maple syrup and brown sugar has completely dissolved, about 3 to 5 minutes. Reduce heat to low and continue cooking for another 10 minutes.
- Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla. Set aside and cool for 30 minutes, then strain the simple syrup through a fine-mesh strainer and into a heatproof bowl.
- Discard spices. Use ALL of the simple syrup in the punch recipe below.
For the Thanksgiving Punch:
- In a large pitcher or punch bowl, combine all of the simple syrup with the apple cider, bourbon, lemon juice, and orange juice. Gently stir to combine.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour - or up to 4 hours. Right before serving, pour the ginger beer into the pitcher and add the apple slices, gently stir to combine.
- Pour into glasses filled with ice and serve at once! Garnish ideas: apple slices, fresh thyme sprigs, star anise, cinnamon sticks.
