Notes

For a non-alcoholic version, this recipe is perfect as-is but you can add a splash of sparkling water for more fizz.

Fresh cranberries and orange slices enhance the presentation and add a burst of flavor but can be omitted if unavailable.
Keep the punch refrigerated until ready to serve to maintain freshness and chill.
