My mother’s side of the family has always been all about simple holiday drinks (or drinking anytime of the year for that matter): bubbles all around. While my father’s side was always kinda of old school with a giant bowl of punch. So I thought why not combine the two this year.?
Boozey Punches have been making quite a comeback in these days and there is no better time to try one than at a holiday family gathering. Trust me, all your relatives are more interesting with some punch. And besides, the best thing about a punch bowl full of a tasty beverage – it’s self serve. This allows you to be free to go about wrapping gifts or cooking. Or avoiding them all while they enjoy a glass or two or three or more.
Here’s a great punch I discovered from Ruffino Prosecco. This recipe can be made by the glass or by the punch bowl. Enjoy. You’ll thank me for it later.
