Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups cranberry juice cocktail chilled
  • 2 cups orange juice chilled
  • 1 bottle (2 L) ginger ale chilled
  • 6 cups ice
  • 1 orange medium, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup cranberries fresh

Equipment

  • 1 5-quart punch bowl

Method
 

  1. Pour the cranberry juice cocktail and orange juice into a 5-quart punch bowl.
  2. Stir to combine.
  3. Gently stir in the ginger ale.
  4. Add the orange slices and fresh cranberries.
  5. Fill glasses with ice.

Notes

For the best fizz, add the chilled ginger ale just before serving. Refrigerate leftover punch for up to 2 days; the carbonation will fade. Freezing is not recommended. For a lower-sugar option, use diet ginger ale.
