Tips for Perfect Punch

  • Use good quality fruit juices for the punch and avoid adding any sweeteners or flavours
  • Do not skip the almond extract even though the amount is small, it enhances a lot of flavour to the punch.
  • Use cool ingredients. If the soda and juices are cold previously, it will help you to add less ice, and it would not make the juice tasteless and diluted.
  • Blend the punch well with all the ingredients in the proper amount to taste perfect.
  • Garnish it properly with fruits. Drinks taste better if they look better and tempting. Adding cranberries and limes are optional, but they will enhance the taste if you use them.
