Instructions
- Add water to a large stockpot. Bring to a boil and add cinnamon and one cone of piloncillo (or the brown sugar).
- Simmer for 15 minutes.
- Add all of the fruit, the raisins (if using), and cloves to the simmering cinnamon water. Continue to simmer for 45 minutes.
- Taste and add another half of a piloncillo if a sweeter punch is preferred (you can either cut or grate the piloncillo). Allow the piloncillo to dissolve in the punch.
- Ladle the hot punch and some of the fruit into mugs, garnish with chopped pecans.
- If desired, add red wine, brandy, rum or tequila to your serving.
Notes
- See post for notes about the ingredients and where to find them.
- Store in the refrigerator in a glass container from 2 to 5 days. The juice will get more concentrated as it sits. Add a little bit of water if it becomes too sweet.
- Warm up your leftover punch on the stovetop or in a mug in the microwave.
