Cranberry Apple Tequila Punch

Cranberry Apple Tequila Punch Recipe

Servings: 8

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups 16 oz blanco or reposado tequila (100% agave)
  • 2 cups 16 oz unfiltered apple cider, chilled
  • 1 ½ cups 12 oz cranberry juice (preferably 100% unsweetened), chilled
  • 4 oz ½ cup fresh-squeezed lime juice (about 4–5 limes)
  • 2 oz ¼ cup light agave nectar
  • 1 750 ml bottle (about 3 cups) Prosecco, chilled
  • Optional Garnishes: Fresh cranberries thinly sliced Honeycrisp apples, lime wheels, and fresh rosemary sprigs

Method
 

  1. Combine the base ingredients: In a large pitcher or punch bowl, add the tequila, apple cider, cranberry juice, fresh lime juice, and agave nectar.
  2. Stir well: Use a long bar spoon to stir thoroughly until the agave nectar is completely dissolved and integrated into the juices.
  3. Chill: Cover the pitcher and refrigerate for at least 1 hour (or up to 24 hours in advance) so the flavors meld and the mixture is thoroughly chilled.
  4. Add ice and bubbles: Right before your guests arrive, add a large ice ring or large ice cubes to the pitcher. Slowly pour in the chilled Prosecco and give it one gentle stir to combine without losing carbonation.
  5. Garnish and serve: Float fresh cranberries, apple slices, lime wheels, and rosemary sprigs on top. Ladle or pour into ice-filled glasses and serve immediately.
