Description

Sparkling Cranberry Punch is a festive, refreshing, and vibrant beverage perfect for holiday gatherings. Combining chilled cranberry, orange, and pineapple juices with fresh lime juice and sparkling lemon-lime soda, this no-cook punch offers a crisp and tangy flavor. Garnished with fresh cranberries and orange slices, it’s a delightful non-alcoholic option that can easily be made into an adult cocktail by adding vodka or sparkling wine.


Ingredients

Scale

Juices

  • 3 cups cranberry juice (chilled)
  • 2 cups orange juice (chilled)
  • 1 cup pineapple juice (chilled)
  • 1/4 cup fresh lime juice

Carbonation

  • 1 liter lemon-lime soda or sparkling water (chilled)

Garnish

  • 1/2 cup fresh cranberries (optional)
  • 1 orange (thinly sliced)

Others

  • Ice as needed


Instructions

  1. Mix the Juices: In a large punch bowl or pitcher, combine the chilled cranberry juice, orange juice, pineapple juice, and fresh lime juice. Stir well until all the juices are fully blended to ensure a balanced flavor.
  2. Add carbonation: Just before serving, pour in the chilled lemon-lime soda or sparkling water to preserve the fizz and create a sparkling effect in the punch.
  3. Garnish and Chill: Add ice to keep the punch cold, and garnish with fresh cranberries and thinly sliced orange rounds for a festive look and a subtle flavor boost.
  4. Serve: Ladle the punch into individual glasses, optionally over ice, and serve immediately to enjoy the fresh, bubbly taste.

Notes

  • For a spirited adult version, add 1 cup of vodka or sparkling wine to the punch.
  • Freeze some of the juice mixture in an ice cube trays to keep the punch cold without diluting it.
  • Use sparkling water instead of lemon-lime soda for a less sweet and more refreshing drink.
