Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 cups cranberry juice, chilled
  • 3 cups orange juice, chilled
  • 2 liters ginger ale or sparkling white grape juice, chilled
  • 1 orange, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries
  • Optional: 1 cup pineapple juice, chilled
  • Optional: Orange slices and whole cranberries for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a large punch bowl, combine the chilled cranberry juice and orange juice. If using, add the pineapple juice now. Stir gently to mix the juices.
  2. Just before serving, slowly pour the chilled ginger ale or sparkling white grape juice into the punch bowl. Stir very carefully one time to combine the liquids without losing too much carbonation.
  3. Add the thin orange slices and whole cranberries to the punch bowl.
  4. If desired, add a large block of ice or use a decorative ice ring to keep the punch cold.
  5. Garnish the top with extra fresh orange slices and cranberries. Serve immediately in glasses filled with ice.

Notes

  • For a make-ahead option, mix the juices (cranberry, orange, pineapple) and store them in the refrigerator. Add the sparkling element (ginger ale) right before guests arrive.
  • To create a beautiful, slow-melting ice ring, freeze water with a few orange slices and cranberries inside a bundt pan the day before.
  • If you want a deeper red color, use cranberry-raspberry juice blend instead of plain cranberry juice.
