Equipment

  • Punch bowl

Ingredients

  • 4 cups cranberry juice cocktail
  • 12 oz frozen orange juice concentrate
  • 12 oz frozen limeade concentrate
  • 1 1/2 cups ginger ale substitution: vodka
  • 2 liters lemon lime soda
  • Ice cubes
  • Cranberries and orange slices for garnish/topping

Instructions

  • In a large punch bowl, combine the cranberry juice, orange juice concentrate, limeade concentrate, ginger ale (or vodka, or a combo of the two) and lemon lime soda. Mix well.
  • Add ice cubes if desired to keep the punch cold. For a festive touch, add orange slices and fresh cranberries to the punch bowl.
  • Note: You can make a grownup version of this holiday beverage simply by adding your favorite adult spirit.

Notes

  • Refrigerate the cranberry juice and lemon lime soda beforehand to keep it extra cold.
  • Feel free to either omit the oranges and cranberries or replace them with different fruit. Any type of fruit will complement the drink well and will be a great addition to your bowl.
  • Consider adding an ice ring to the bowl to keep the mixture consistently cold. See instructions below.
  • You can also add a tub of rainbow sherbet to the punch just before setting out.
  • If you don’t own a punch bowl, cut the recipe in half or thirds and combine ingredients in a large pitcher.
  • Use a ladle or plastic cup to pour from the bowl into individual cups without making a mess.
  • This makes a very large batch, providing 1 full cup per person for up to 24 people.
  • Creating an adult version? You can also replace a portion of the lemon-lime soda with champagne or serve your favorite spirits on the side for a holiday cocktail.
