Adding a Kick
For an extra kick, we add a splash of orange liqueur to the punch. This adds a subtle sweetness and depth of flavor to the drink.
Putting it All Together
Now that we have all our ingredients, it's time to make the southern living beer punch. In a large pitcher or punch bowl, mix together the chilled beer, orange juice, pineapple juice, lemon juice, lime juice, honey, and orange liqueur. Stir well until all the ingredients are well combined.
Serving and Garnishing
To serve, fill glasses with ice and pour the punch over it. Garnish with slices of oranges, lemons, and limes for a beautiful and flavorful presentation. You can also add a splash of club soda for some extra fizz.
