Have you been enjoying your break?! I’ve been trying to use my phone less, check Instagram less, be more present. It’s been quiet on the internet or maybe I just have been checking it so it’s been seeming like that.
I’m going to mostly go away until Monday but I wanted to pop back in to share with you this lil’ punch recipe. Hopefully it comes in handy on Thursday when you’re making out with the one you like the most.
This punch combines all of my favorite libation type things: ginger, pink wine, sparkling vibes and fruit for a snack. The elderflower liqueur gives it a nice effervescent quality and it doesn’t taste too “strong” or liquor-like.
You can drink glass after glass, which might be good or bad. 🙂
Wishing you a safe and happy new year. I’ll be back shortly with a recap of December, my favorite month.

Ingredients
Punch:
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 inch knob of fresh ginger, peeled and cut into rounds
- 1 (200ml) small format bottle of St. Germain Elderflower Liqueur
- 2 (750ml) bottles of rosé champagne
For Garnish:
- Slices of fuyu persimmon
- 1 cup fresh cranberries
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, combine the water and sugar and place over medium low heat. Stir until the sugar has dissolved. Add the rounds of fresh ginger and bring to a simmer. Immediately turn off the heat, cover and allow to steep for about 10 to 15 minutes. Remove the rounds of ginger and pour into a punch bowl or large pitcher.
- Add the St. Germain Elderflower Liqueur and stir. If you’re prepping this for a party, then transfer to the fridge until you’re ready to serve. If not, then continue to add the rosé champagne. Add a few cups of ice and garnish with slices of persimmon and fresh cranberries.
This punch sounds great but I’m absolutely in LOVE with that punch bowl! So jealous! If I had more space I’d rush out and grab one now, but my prop closet is overflowing already and I think my husband would strangle me! hahahaha!
I hope you have a wonderful new year- I’m sure this punch will help!
This looks so good! I am definitely going to have to give it a whirl. Happy New Year!
what a great concoction for the upcoming holiday! it’s so festive and healthy.
This sounds delicious and so perfect for this festive time of the year. I have never tried (or saw) Elderflower liqueur before, I would love to have some on hand.
