Non Alcohol Holiday Punch

This fizzy, fruity holiday punch comes together in a single bowl and takes about ten minutes. Frozen lemonade and orange juice concentrate give it a tart, citrusy base, while grenadine adds that rosy pink color and a touch of sweetness that screams celebration.

The ginger ale goes in last, right before guests start filling their cups. Add it too early and the bubbles go flat while the punch sits. Keep everything ice-cold and the fizz does the rest.

A lemon slice and a cherry in each cup turns a simple beverage into something that looks like it took way more effort than it did.

Chef Tips

• Chill everything first. Cold concentrates, cold water, cold ginger ale. Skip the ice cubes entirely if everything is already fridge-cold, since melting ice dilutes the punch.
• Make a decorative ice ring instead of loose cubes. Freeze lemon slices and cherries in a bundt pan filled with water or extra punch. It melts slower and looks festive in the bowl.
• Add the ginger ale in batches if you’re serving over a long party. Refill as needed so every cup gets that fresh fizz.

Variations

• Cranberry holiday punch: Replace the water with cranberry juice for a deeper red color and tart berry flavor.
• Tropical twist: Swap lemonade for frozen pineapple juice concentrate and add a splash of coconut cream.
