    Cranberry Punch is a sweet and refreshing punch recipe that is made with cranberry juice cocktail, pineapple juice and ginger ale. They are mixed together and served over ice and garnished with cranberries and limes. It is perfect for adults and kids at any party and especially at the Holidays!

    The cranberries make it especially appropriate for Thanksgiving. I also love how the bright red cranberries pair with the green limes to make those traditional Christmas colors.

    There is an option below to make this an adult beverage with alcohol. Or you can check out this recipe for Cranberry Margaritas!

    If you have fresh or frozen cranberries leftover you can make these amazing Cranberry Orange Muffins!

      Made this punch for Thanksgiving. Everyone enjoyed it. Left a bottle of vodka on the side for those who wanted to add some. Tried both ways, delicious. Making it again fir New Years.
