Ingredients

  • 1 pint cranberry juice cocktail
  • 1 ½ cups fresh squeezed lemon juice
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 56 ounces chilled ginger ale (about 2, 1 liter bottles)
  • 1 quart raspberry sherbert
  • lemon and lime slices and/or pomagranate seeds for garnish

Instructions

  • In a medium sized pitcher, combine cranberry juice, lemon juice, and sugar. Muddle and blend well until the sugar dissolves. Place in fridge and let chill for at least an hour.
  • Add lemon and lime slice to a punch bowl or large pitcher (a drink dispenser works great too) and pour in sweeted juice.Pour in chilled giner ale and stir.
  • To serve, gently stir in sherbet. Garnish with ice cubes or an ice ring.

Notes

To Add Alcohol:
    • You can either add one ounce of liquor to each individual serving, or you can add about 3-3.5 cups of spirits to the larger batch, depending on how strong you want it.
    • I recommend champagne, vodka, rum, rose wine, or procsecco to turn this simple recipe into a spirited holiday punch!
To Adjust The Serving Size:
  • You can easily adjust the quantities to serve a smaller or larger group. Just keep the same ratio of ingredients for the best results.
How To Make An Ice Ring:
  • Place 2-3 cups of sliced fruit, fresh strawberries, citrus peel curls, edible flowers, and/or fresh herbs in your pan in a bundt pan or small freezer-friendly cups then pour water, club soda, lemon-lime carbonated beverage, or desired punch recipe around fruits.
  • Freeze for several hours, or until firm. To remove the ice ring from the pan, dip the bottom of the pan in warm water for a few seconds. Invert over a large plate to release the ring.
