Tips:
- Choose fresh cranberries: Fresh cranberries are essential for making a vibrant and flavorful poinsettia punch. Look for cranberries that are plump and deep red in color. Avoid cranberries that are soft or have blemishes.

- Sweeten to your liking: The amount of sugar you add to the punch is a matter of personal preference. Start with a small amount and add more to taste. You can also use other sweeteners, such as honey or agave syrup.
- Garnish with flair: A few simple garnishes can make your poinsettia punch even more festive. Try adding a sprig of rosemary, a slice of orange, or a few cranberries to each glass.
