Sparkling Golden Apple Punch
Anything you can throw together in five minutes is fine by us…plus this just looks so pretty!
We’re used to having an assortment of wine, beer and juice on-hand anytime we throw a party, but those can get kind of boring, so we wanted to come up with a punch that was just as good for adults as it was for the kids. Sometimes hearing the word “punch” can evoke images of bright red, fake fruity concoctions, but not this one. This one is elegant and delicious, with a great balance of flavors that will have your pouring yourself seconds in no time. And if you want to add some champagne or prosecco to your glass, that’s fine by us!
While you could swap in any other juice/soda combo of your choosing, we went with apple juice, white grape juice and lemonade, then added some bubbles by pouring in some ginger ale. We topped everything off by adding some pretty apple slices and called it a day. This golden punch is pretty perfect for fall, but once you taste it you’ll want to make it year-round….
