Open House Spiced Wine Punch
There's nothing better than saying "Pop on by for Christmas Eve." Opening the doors to friends and family throughout the day means you get to spend quality time and see everyone without the fuss of a full-blown, crowded party. We infused Duplin Christmas Wine with a cinnamon stick for this punch that's light on the alcohol for guests making multiple stops. Add a flavored vodka like cranberry or orange for more of a kick.
Ingredients:
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 1 bottle Duplin Christmas Wine
- 3 cups cold cranberry-apple juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 12 ounces cold ginger beer
- 12 ounces cold hard cider
- Optional: 1 cup vanilla-, cranberry- or orange-flavored vodka
- Garnish: fresh cranberries, sliced oranges and sliced limes
Directions:
- Infuse the wine: Open the Duplin Christmas Wine and drop the cinnamon stick into the bottle. Recork wine and let set for 24 to 48 hours at room temperature. Chill the wine in the bottle.
- Make the punch: Pour the chilled cinnamon-infused Duplin Christmas Wine, cranberry-apple juice and vanilla into a punch bowl or large, clear beverage dispenser. Stir ingredients until well combined.
- Add ginger beer and hard cider. Stir gently just to combine.
- Garnish the punch with fresh cranberries, sliced oranges and sliced limes.
- Makes 12 to 14 servings.
