What People Are Saying:
“This beverage was a huge hit at our annual Christmas party; I’ve made it several years in a row now and every time I do, I get a couple requests for the recipe. I even made a smaller batch for a dinner party as well. It’s so tasty and just kind of screams holidays!!! It’s beautiful to boot; pretty much a decoration itself!” - Epicurious1977
My favorite thing about big-batch Christmas cocktails like this one? They’re so easy to create, and come together in no time. First, we’re going to create the sugar rim on our glasses. Using a lime wedge, wet the rim of the glasses well, then dip in sugar until well coated.
Now, it’s as simple as combining all of your ingredients in the punch bowl. If you’re preparing this head of time, hold off on the Prosecco until you’re ready to serve. Once everything is added, give it a good stir.
Once combined, add your frozen (or fresh) cranberries, lime rounds, and fresh mint to the bowl.
Now, get to serving! Use a ladle (or scoop with your cups if you’re feeling crazy) to serve this drink up to all your party guests.
The full list of ingredients and instructions can be found in the recipe below.
You can make this punch ahead of time by combining everything together (minus the fruit, mint, and Prosecco) up to 3 days in advance, then add the bubbly and everything else in right before you’re ready to serve.
