2012 Virtual Advent Tour: My Berry Christmas Punch Recipe
The Virtual Advent Tour is hosted by Kailana from The Written World and Marg from Adventures of an Intrepid Reader. To visit more stops on the Virtual Advent Tour, check out the tour schedule. In my first post I shared my favourite holiday Christmas movies.Today I'm going to share the recipe for Berry Christmas Punch. My folks still host Christmas each year and since they can never make up their mind what they want other people to bring, I've taken to bringing along a yummy fruity punch which my family always enjoy. It usually gets topped up once or twice during the night. I can't remember where I originally got the recipe, but i've changed it up a bit over the years.Berry Christmas PunchIngredients: 1.5 litres Ocean Spray rasperry cranberryA bottle of sparkling wine (I tend to just use Spumante or Moscato)1/2 cup (125ml) Cointreau2 limes, quartered250g strawberries150g blueberries120g raspberries1/4 cup fresh mint leavesMethod:Pour the cranberry juice, sparkling wine and Cointreau into a punch bowl.
