Time 15m

Yield 9-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/4 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup red cinnamon candies (the red hot kind)
1 -2 cinnamon stick
6 -8 whole cloves
3 cups cranberry juice cocktail
3 cups pineapple juice
3 -4 cups water

Steps:

  • Run through the normal perking cycle.
  • I usually increase this as I have a party perk that holds 40 cups.

Tips:

  • Choose a variety of fruits: Use a mix of citrus fruits like oranges, lemons, and limes, as well as berries and other seasonal fruits. This will give your punch a complex flavor and vibrant color.
  • Use fresh fruit juices: Freshly squeezed fruit juices will give your punch the best flavor. Avoid using store-bought juices, which often contain added sugar and preservatives.
  • Sweeten to taste: Start with a small amount of sugar or honey and add more to taste. You can also use a sugar-free sweetener if you prefer.
  • Add some spices: Spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves can add a warm, festive flavor to your punch. Just be careful not to add too much, or your punch will taste overpowering.
  • Chill before serving: Punch is best served cold, so make sure to chill it for at least an hour before serving. You can also add ice cubes or frozen fruit to keep it cold.

Conclusion:

Cold weather punch is a delicious and festive way to warm up on a cold day. With a little planning and effort, you can make a punch that your friends and family will love. So next time you're hosting a party or gathering, try one of these recipes and see for yourself how easy it is to make a delicious cold weather punch.
