Instructions

- Slowly pour club soda down the side of the pitcher to retain fizziness.
- Stir gently and add ice cubes before serving.
Tips & Substitutions
For a sweeter punch, consider adding a splash of grenadine or using a cranberry juice cocktail instead of cranberry apple drink. You can also substitute lemon juice with lime juice for a different citrus flavor. If you're looking for a non-carbonated version, simply omit the club soda and serve over ice. This drink can also be made ahead of time, just hold off on adding the soda until serving.
Serving Suggestions
Serve this refreshing Scarlett Sipper over ice in a large punch bowl or individual glasses. Garnish with fresh fruit slices like oranges or cranberries for a festive touch. This punch pairs wonderfully with sweet and savory dishes, such as Sloppy Joes (Microwave) or festival sweet potatoes, making it a great choice for gatherings and celebrations.
Storage & Reheating
If you have leftovers, store the punch in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. However, be aware that the club soda will lose its fizz over time, so it's best to consume it fresh. If you've made a large batch, consider separating the liquid from the soda before storing to maintain the carbonation.
