Homemade Watermelon Mint Lemonade is a nice cold refreshing summer drink easy recipe. It’s a perfect cold drink for summer soiree’s, poolside drinks or just as a treat to your self after a long hard hot day.
Another real treat to make for yourself and your guests is this Ginger Sweet Peach Iced Tea, southern brewed to perfection. Enjoy your tea the way us southerners do.
This one is my personal favorite, Homemade Sweet Lemonade. It’s considered a summer beverage but it’s really good anytime of the year and I even make it at Christmas too.
How To Make Cranberry Orange Christmas Punch
Add the juices, lime slices, orange slices and cranberries to a large glass or plastic bowl. Do not use a metal bowl. Gently press the fruit using a large wooden spoon or a potato masher, to release the juices. Stir to combine and refrigerate for several hours to completely chill.
Remove from the refrigerator and pour through a strainer to remove the solids. Pour the liquid into a large pitcher and finish filling with Ginger Ale. Stir to combine.
Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
Serve over ice and garnish your glasses with extra cranberries or orange slices if desired.
How To Serve Christmas Punch
Serve your Christmas Punch in pretty little glasses which you can chill first. Chill the glasses by setting them in the refrigerator for several hours prior to your event.
Refills can be self serve from a carafe like this one or a pretty glass beverage pitcher like this one I found on Amazon.
A punchbowl like this classic one, is always a fun way to serve Christmas Punch. Chill the punch in the refrigerator prior to serving and pour into the punch bowl at the appropriate time.
How you serve your punch will depend on how many people you are serving. If only a few folks, go with the carafe or pitcher. If you are entertaining a crowd, use the punch bowl because it’s just plain fun and adds to the festive atmosphere.
Make a festive ice ring for your punch bowl by freezing ginger ale with cranberries and orange slices added. You can use an ice mold like this one on Amazon. Skip the ice ring and simply add orange slices and fresh cranberries for a festive look to your punch.
