Method

NON-ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES - PREPARATION

  1. 1

    Combine base liquids

    In a large pitcher, pour the Martinelli’s Sparkling Apple Cider, orange juice, cranberry juice, and simple syrup. Stir gently to combine while preserving fizz.

  2. 2

    Chill the base

    Refrigerate the mixture for 15-20 minutes to let flavors meld and keep it cold.

  3. 3

    Prepare garnishes

    Rinse orange slices. If desired, keep them in halves to hold onto the rind.

  4. 4

    Add ice for serving

    Just before serving, add 2 cups of ice to the pitcher to maintain chill without overly diluting the drink.

  5. 5

    Add aromatics

    Add 2 cinnamon sticks and 3 star anise to the pitcher and give a gentle stir to release aroma.

  6. 6

    Garnish with fruit

    Add the orange slices and 0.5 cup fresh cranberries to float in the punch for color and aroma.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Pour the punch into glasses, making sure each glass gets some fruit and a cinnamon stick if desired. Serve immediately.
