Holiday or Winter Party Punch

Serving A Punch At Your Next Holiday or Winter Party?

An ice ring is a great way to get creative and decorate any punch bowl filled with fresh juice.

INGREDIENTS
  • 6-8 cups of water
  • 3 sliced citrus fruits, like lemon or oranges
  • 1 cup raspberries, cranberries and/or strawberries
  • 1 cup sprigs of rosemary or thyme

Tip: You can use any combination of the recommended garnish ingredients you’d like just by following the basic steps. You can also use a juice recipe in place of the water if you want to add more color.

DIRECTIONS
  1. Fill a bundt pan halfway with water and let it sit in the freezer for a few hours until it’s almost firm but still a little slushy.⁣
  2. Add your choice of garnishes: slices of citrus, cranberries, raspberries, or herbs like mint, rosemary, or thyme. Push them down into the slushy part so they don’t all float to the top. Then, let the fruit set for at least an hour before filling the rest of the bundt pan to the top with water.⁣
  3. When you remove the ring from the freezer, flip it onto a plate. Run warm water over the top of the pan, and the ring will pop out of the mold onto the plate.⁣
  4. Freeze it until ready to use if you’d like, or put it directly into a punch bowl and add the fresh juices and sparkling water to the bowl.⁣

Healthy Eating Does Not Have To Be Hard!

It’s true! Now that we are on our R3 challenge, here’s a great recipe for healthy eating!

I’ve learned that I can’t trust the beef in the grocery stores. Our Publix does not sell USDA Prime anymore because it’s just too expensive with today’s economy. I insist that my beef be:

  • USDA Prime or High Choice 
  • Raised here in the US with:
  • No Antibiotics EVER and……
  • No Hormones EVER and….
  • Grass fed

If you eat beef, and want to learn about a great resource that I trust, let me know and we’ll get you the proper info.
