Notes

How to store Christmas Punch

Alright, once you’ve got that punch all mixed up, it’s time to dive in and enjoy it while it’s fizzy and fab! If you end up with leftovers, you can keep ’em for later in the fridge, but just a heads up – those bubbles are gonna take a chill pill eventually. If you wanna keep the party poppin’ with no leftovers in sight, just whip up one batch at a time.

How long will Christmas Punch last in the fridge?

Mix up everything except for the ginger ale, and you can store it in the fridge for up to 2 days. Then when you’re ready to serve the punch, add the ginger ale and enjoy!

Can I freeze this easy Christmas Punch?

Yup, you can freeze this punch! Pour it into a freezer-safe container, leaving a bit of space at the top for it to expand. It’ll keep in the freezer for up to 1 month.

Recipe Tips

  1. Avoid Watered Down Punch. The best way to do this is to use chilled ingredients! If the soda and juices are cold beforehand, you don’t need to add as much ice, and therefore the punch flavor won’t be as diluted.
  2. Tips to Make Ahead: When planning a holiday party or gathering, anything you can do ahead of time allows you to enjoy the time with friends and family more. You can mix the punch together but hold off on the ginger ale until you’re ready to serve. Once it’s mixed, store it in the fridge until party time.
