Ingredients

  • 4 cups cranberry-juice cocktail, chilled
  • 1 container (6 ounces) frozen lemonade concentrate, thawed
  • 1 bottle (1 liter) plain seltzer or club soda, chilled
  • 1 small orange, cut into ¼-inch-thick slices and each slice cut in half

Instructions

  1. 1Combine the cranberry juice cocktail and thawed lemonade concentrate in a large pitcher, stirring well to blend the flavors.
  2. 2Pour in the chilled seltzer and add ice cubes to the pitcher. Drop in the fresh orange slices right before pouring so they stay intact and vibrant.

Notes

  • Make ahead: Mix the cranberry juice and lemonade concentrate in a sealed container. Keep the seltzer and sliced oranges separate until you're ready to serve.
  • Transporting: Finish the punch at your destination by pouring the juice mixture into a serving pitcher, then topping it with the seltzer, ice, and orange slices.
  • Adult variation: Set up a drink station with vodka or dark rum on the side so guests can spike their own glasses.
