Cranberry Tequila Punch Recipe

Cranberry Tequila Punch Recipe

by Cassandra Morris

Ingredients

Christmas Punch

▢ 4 cups pure 100% Cranberry Juice chilled
▢ 3 cups sweet apple cider chilled (not apple cider vinegar)
▢ 2 cups reposado tequila add more or less to taste
▢ 1 can of frozen orange juice concentrate
▢ 2 ½ cups frozen cranberries
▢ 2 oranges thinly sliced into rounds

For Serving

▢ 1 ½ cups ginger ale add more or less to taste
▢ cinnamon stick in each glass

Instructions

Combine all Christmas Punch ingredients in a large punch bowl or drink dispenser. Mix until combined.
Add in cranberries and orange slices.
Let chill in your refrigerator until your party starts! Chill for at least 1 hour.
Upon serving, gently mix in the ginger ale and serve promptly. For optimal results, enjoy the Christmas Punch within a couple of hours after incorporating the ginger ale, as it will start to go flat over time.
Add a cinnamon stick to each glass and enjoy!
Cheers!

Summer Cravings

Sheet Pan Chicken Quesadillas

I love a good quesadilla, but standing over a skillet flipping them one by one while everyone else is already eating? Not exactly my idea of a good time. That’s why these Sheet Pan Chicken Quesadillas are such a game-changer. They bake all at once, slice beautifully, and the best part? I get to sit down and enjoy them with everyone else. It might just be the easiest, most crowd-pleasing appetizer I’ve ever made. These chicken quesadillas are crispy, cheesy, packed with flavor, and made to feed a crowd—no stovetop required. This isn’t your average Tuesday-night quesadilla situation. It’s...

Lemon Bars Recipe

Who else LOVES lemon bars?! For me, they’re one of my all-time favorite desserts—bright, tangy, buttery perfection. This lemon bars recipe is one I’ve tested to perfection, made with an easy, melt-in-your-mouth shortbread crust and a smooth lemon filling that strikes just the right balance of sweet and tart. I love a generous bite, which is why I created this recipe in a 9x9-inch pan, giving you that perfect ratio of thick lemon filling to buttery crust. If life gives you lemons, this is the recipe to make. Whether you’re bringing dessert to a spring brunch, prepping for a holiday tray,...

Asparagus Puff Pastry Bundles

So, here is my recipe for fresh asparagus with puff pastry, a lovely side dish for any dinner party. I’ll be honest: it doesn’t look like much at first, and it’s definitely not as tantalizing as a colorful berry salad. But don’t be fooled, one bite into this asparagus with puff pastry and you’ll be amazed: glazed with honey, oozing with the best cheese mixture, and simply robust asparagus, this is definitely going to be one of the most memorable dishes you’ll ever have. It is very similar to cheesy asparagus tarts, except this one has already been apportioned and is shaped...

Perfect for busy weeknights, this dish uses simple ingredients you likely already have in your pantry—think butter, garlic, and a splash of heavy cream. The best part? This family-friendly dinner is incredibly versatile and can be served over pasta, mashed potatoes, or rice, making it a guaranteed favorite every...
