FAQs

Can I make this punch in advance?
Yes! You can combine all the juices and spiced rum ahead of time and store the mixture in the fridge. Just add the ginger ale right before serving to keep it fizzy.

What’s the best rum to use?
Any good-quality spiced rum works well in this punch. Look for one with hints of vanilla, cinnamon, and cloves for a rich flavor.

Can I serve this warm?
While traditionally served cold, you can warm the juices and rum for a cozy, spiced punch. Just heat gently, without bringing it to a boil, and serve warm with cinnamon sticks.

How can I make it less sweet?
If you prefer a less sweet drink, replace the ginger ale with club soda and reduce the grenadine.
