HOLIDAY PUNCH


This holiday punch seriously packs, well, a punch. A quick glance over the ingredients and you’ll know what we mean. This is a punch spiked with black or oolong tea - usually it would be tea spiked with alcohol, but seeing as there is more alcohol in this punch than tea, we’re going to say that it’s spiked with tea. The ingredient proportions can definitely be tailored to how strong you’d like to make this punch, just play with it until you get a batch that tastes the best to you. Happy experimenting and happy holidays.
