Jingle Juice Christmas Punch Recipe
Jingle Juice Christmas Punch combines cranberry juice, moscato wine, Cointreau, vodka, and sparkling apple cider with frozen cranberries, lime slices, and mint leaves. The blend offers a chilled, fruity punch that's festive and refreshing, ideal for holiday gatherings. Its mixture of red wine and citrus elements creates a balanced flavor with light bubbliness from the cider. The frozen cranberries help keep the punch cool without diluting it quickly, providing a simple way to serve a party-sized drink.
Ingredients
- 3 cups cranberry juice 100% juice versions sweetened with fruit juice preferred, chilled
- 750 mL moscato wine red preferred, but white or pink work, too, chilled
- ⅔ cup Cointreau or triple sec
- 1 cup vodka plus more to taste
- 25 ounces sparkling apple cider or grape juice, chilled
- 2 cups cranberries frozen
- 3 lime cut into thin slices
- ¼ cup mint small fresh leaves
Instructions
- In a large punch bowl or a drink dispenser, combine the cranberry juice, moscato, Cointreau or Triple Sec, vodka, apple cider or grape juice, and frozen cranberries. Stir well to combine.
- Taste the punch, and add additional vodka, if desired.
- Layer the lime slices and mint leaves on top. Serve into punch glasses with a ladle.
Notes
- Rim glasses with sugar using lime wedges before serving to enhance the presentation and add sweetness.
- Frozen cranberries chill the punch but may not keep it cold for long periods; consider making a cranberry punch ice ring in a Bundt pan for extended chilling without dilution.
- Adjust vodka quantity after tasting to control the punch's alcohol level to personal preference.
