Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups cranberry juice
- 2 cups lemonade
- 2 cups sparkling water or lemon-lime soda
- 1 whole (thinly sliced) fresh lemon slices
- 0.5 cups fresh cranberries
- 2 cups ice cubes
- 8 leaves mint leaves
- 2 tablespoons sugar (optional, to taste)
Instructions
In a large pitcher or punch bowl, combine the cranberry juice and lemonade. Stir well to mix.
If you prefer a sweeter punch, dissolve the sugar in the juice mixture by stirring until fully incorporated.
Add the sparkling water or lemon-lime soda just before serving to retain its fizz. Stir gently.
Add the thinly sliced lemons, fresh cranberries, and ice cubes to the punch. Mix lightly to distribute the garnish.
Top with fresh mint leaves for a pop of color and an aromatic touch.
Serve immediately in chilled glasses. Optionally, garnish each glass with a lemon slice or a sprig of mint for presentation.
