Festive Alcohol-Free Punch

This virgin cocktail is fruity and lightly spiced with ginger ale and mixed spice. A festive spiced pomegranate punch that is completely alcohol free! Serve with sliced oranges in your favourite large glass. I love serving this during the Christmas period as a alcohol-free alternative to your traditional cocktails or drinks.

Juice one orange and one lemon. Chop the other two and add to a large pitcher.

I used my favourite pitcher with matching storer from The White Company, but any large one will do.

Now you need to deseed the pomegranate and add half of the seeds and juice to the pitcher. The easy way to do this is to hold one half of a pomegranate cut-side down in your hand and bash the top of it with a wooden spoon or rolling pin so the seeds fall out. I adore the flavour of pomegranate, and they are so good for you too (they’re really rich in protective compounds which have lots of antioxidant properties).

Next add in your sugar and mixed spice to the pitcher.

Top up with ginger ale, sparkling water and ice to finish off your festive punch.

Give everything a good stir and pour into your favourite glasses.
