To start, combine the apple cider and cranberry juice in a large punch bowl or pitcher. If you prefer a stronger punch, add a cup of vodka to the mix. Stir well to combine all the flavors.
Next, slowly pour in the ginger ale to add a bit of fizz to the punch. The ginger ale will also help balance out the sweetness of the apple cider and cranberry juice. Give it a quick stir and taste to see if you need to adjust the flavors to your liking.
To make your punch look extra festive, add some fresh cranberries and apple slices to the bowl or pitcher. Not only does it add a pop of color, but it also gives your guests a tasty snack to enjoy while sipping on their punch.
This Thanksgiving punch is best served chilled, so make sure to refrigerate it for a few hours before your guests arrive. You can also make it the night before and let it chill in the fridge overnight for even more flavor. When it's time to serve, add some ice cubes to each glass and pour in the punch. For an extra touch, you can rim the glasses with cinnamon sugar before adding the punch for a warm and cozy flavor.
This recipe can be easily doubled or tripled for larger gatherings, and you can also play around with the ratios of juice, ginger ale, and vodka to suit your taste. And there you have it, a delicious and easy punch recipe that will elevate your Thanksgiving feast and impress your guests.
So this holiday season, skip the store-bought punch and try out this homemade recipe. Your guests will thank you!
