Its TIIIIIME!! It’s that time of year where functions are frequent, family and friends are gathering, and the most wonderful time of the year to celebrate is here. If you know me, you know Im a lazy barista who only makes drinks with items I have at home. Come on in and see what Im making this week.
I like to serve some fun drinks when Im entertaining during the holidays and this one always gets rave reviews when placed out. Any holiday party needs a seasonal drink to accompany it. This SUPER simple holiday punch is a nice blend of tart and sweet which takes 5 minutes to put together and ready to serve.
So what will you need? This recipe calls for your best vodka, sparkling wine, cranberry and pineapple juice, along with some cranberries and rosemary for garnish.
Ingredients
750 ml Vodka (I used Tito’s Handmade Vodka)
750 ml sparking wine
32 oz cranberry juice
8oz pineapple juice
4oz lime juice (optional)
How to Make
Add all of the above in a pitcher and mix. Garnish with cranberries, rosemary, and lime slices as desired. Suggest to have your guests add ice to their own cups so the entire pitcher doesn’t get watered down. Serve right away or refrigerate for later use.
Pro-Tip
- Because of the carbonated wine included, this drink is best served right after its made as it will go flat within a few hours. If you would like to prepare before guests arrive, you can store the mixture in the refrigerator and add the sparkling wine at the last minute
- If you would like to make a non alcoholic version for the kiddos or folks who do not drink, remove the vodka and sparkling wine and add pomegranate juice. This options still gives a festive look without the punch!

Happy Holidays,
