Pomegranate Party Punch combines the BEST flavors of the season in a festive drink that’s guaranteed to have your guests coming back for more!
The craziest thing happened this morning. We woke up, came downstairs, and looked out the window….only to find a mail truck sitting in our driveway waiting to unload Christmas boxes. At 7:30 in the morning! Needless to say, I was a little caught off guard. And not just because I was still in my pajamas….but because the kids! They were still home! And very very aware.
Not exactly how I pictured it when I ordered ALL their Christmas presents online. No, I was thinking they’d be long gone….and I’d be all on my own….and, best case scenario, even Myla would be napping when the gifts were delivered. And I’d take them into their hiding spot in the basement….and the kids? They’d be none the wiser.
I should have known better, really. When it comes to Christmas presents, it never seems quite as easy as you think it should be. Especially as the kids get older! I feel like I need to seriously up my Santa skills….stat!!
Pomegranate Party Punch – A crowd pleaser!
Ahhh, good old holiday stress. You can’t really avoid it, can you? Which is probably why I find myself LOVING any little thing that makes life feel easier at this time of year. Especially when it comes to party prep! The simpler, the better….am I right? And this Pomegranate Party Punch could not be simpler.
Made with just 6 basic ingredients and garnished with the most beautiful fruits of the season, this punch is sweet, tart, fizzy, boozy, and completely delicious. I’ve been loving fresh pomegranates lately….and I knew I’d love them even more combined with fresh cranberries and limes. The end result? Well, it’s nothing short of AMAZING! Pomegranate Party Punch is the only thing I want to be drinking this holiday season….especially if my presents keep getting delivered at 7:30 in the morning!

It’s so funny as they get older. Now I just tell Jordan…no peeking in my office. I *hope* she listens, lol. This is the prettiest cocktail ever!

looks like I have found the perfect Christmas day punch, thank you, we have drunk Bucks Fizz for years on the big bay but earlier this year I discovered that oranges are my trigger for migraine, so no more bucks fizz for me and it hardly seemed fair to deprive the rest of the family of one of our Christmas customs but this will fill the spot perfectly.

I LOVE pomegranate! I even have a pomegranate tree in my backyard! I’ll definitely be putting this recipe to use!
Cathy Trochelman says
I’m super jealous that you have a pomegranate tree in your backyard!

hahaha I would have just told them all that mommy just ordered a ton of new props and equipment for work and that’s what was in all the boxes. haha 😉 Well I guess that would depend on what was on the outside of the boxes lol.
Love this punch. It’s so, so pretty!

Michele says
I love the punch, but I can relate to the kids seeing the boxes. We ended up switching some things to some January birthdays because we couldn’t figure out how to explain the labels on the boxes that were supposed to be from Santa.
