Lately I have been on a punch kick! It's so much fun to make a big batch of a yummy cocktail for small gatherings. It's fun to create a custom punch recipe for each occasion, and it saves so much time mixing cocktails as guests can help themselves. This punch is called First Kiss, in honor of Valentine's Day!
First Kiss Punch, serves 6
2 cups honey whiskey
1 cup light rum
1 cup St-Germain
1 cup raspberry pucker
2 cups pineapple juice
1 cup grapefruit juice
3 liters gingerale
4 tablespoons grenadine syrup
8 splashes cherry and blood orange bitters
Combine all the ingredients in a large container (our container holds 1.5 gallons). Top off with ice immediately before the party.Heart shaped ice cubes can be fun! To make these I froze grenadine, blood orange bitters and raspberry gingerale.
Garnish with cherries and enjoy!
