Cheery Cherry Sparkling Punch
If you’ve been following us for a while now you’ll know that every opportunity we get we will make a punch. It could be for a birthday, family get-together, holidays or any other reason we can come up with and today is no exception. Best of all, I get to use Sparkling Ice in my concoction which really makes it a whole lot of fun because they are a super flavorful, fizzy water that is packed with vitamins and antioxidants, zero sugar, and naturally sourced colors and flavors.
For this punch, we started with a bottle of medium-range vodka allowing the additional ingredients to essentially run the show. From there we used our standard punch formula of citrus, sugar, juice, and bubbles whereas we were able to use Sparkling Ice Cherry Limeade as the bubbles to make this punch effervescent with bold flavors. We considered just leaving it there and it was really quite delicious, but we wanted some additional seasonal flavors, so we introduced some cranberry juice and lime juice. It was really great now and just needed some sugar to balance it, once we added the simple syrup the punch was ready for the party.
Recipe:
- 1 bottle vodka
- ½ cup lime juice
- ½ cup simple syrup

Ice Ring:
Prepare your ice ring at least 24 hours in advance by filling a Bundt cake mold with water, cranberries and lime wedges. Store in the freezer in a flat position to create a symmetrical ice ring.
