Ice
Edible fall flowers (optional, for garnish)

Tips & Variations

Chill all your ingredients beforehand to keep the punch cool without diluting it with too much ice.
Add the prosecco last and stir gently to preserve the bubbles.
Garnish just before serving to maintain freshness and visual appeal.
Make in larger batches for parties by doubling or tripling the recipe.

Storage

Store any leftover punch in the refrigerator in a sealed container for up to 24 hours. Prosecco may lose its effervescence over time, so it’s best to enjoy the punch fresh. Stir gently before serving again and add fresh ice as needed.

How to Serve

Two clear glasses filled with an orange-red drink sit on a brown tray. Each glass has a bottom layer of orange slices, a middle layer of crushed ice, and a top layer of whole bright red cranberries. Each drink is decorated with a half orange slice and a small yellow flower placed near the rim. Red cranberries are also scattered on the tray around the glasses.
