Cranberry Tea Hot Punch Recipe

Serves 1

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup cranberries
  • 2 bottles apple cider
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 8 tea bags
  • 1/2 tsp ginger
  • 4 cloves
  • 1 cinnamon sticks


    Instructions:

    Boil the cranberries in about 1/2 cup of water until they pop. Then press the cranberries through a sieve, and extract the juice. Save the juice. You can do this in advance. It's pretty thick, almost a puree. If you can find unsweetened cranberry juice, you can use that. Make strong tea with 4 cups of boiling water. Add 2 cups of cranberry juice and 2 cups of apple cider, brown sugar, and spices. Stir until the sugar dissolves. Garnish with orange slices.
