Hey friends! I appreciate you stopping by today. I don’t know what the weather is like where you live, but the mornings are getting cooler around here, the leaves are finally beginning to turn, and I am getting SO excited for all things fall! To be honest, summer has my heart. But the thought of sweaters, scarves, boots and pumpkins definitely puts a smile on my face! I just love this time of year and everything that goes along with it; church holiday parties, family-friendly fall activities, and delicious recipes! I wanted to share my apple cider cranberry punch recipe with you all to get you in the fall mood! 

Last week my grandparents were visiting from down south, and I mentioned how much I loved apple cider this time of year. Well, my sweet grandma went out and bought me a whole gallon!

While I love apple cider all on it’s own, my husband isn’t a huge fan. I looked up a few punch recipes to see if I could find a combination that looked good, but I ended up creating my own variation of a sparkling cranberry apple cider punch instead.

I was thinking about flavor combinations and I remembered how much my husband loves cranberry apple juice, so that became my inspiration to create an apple cranberry cider punch. I served mine in a large punch bowl, but a pretty glass pitcher would work as well! I also topped it with some apple slices, but orange slices or even cinnamon sticks would also make an excellent garnish. 

This punch is seriously so easy, I feel silly even calling it a recipe! Here’s what I used:

4 cups Apple Cider

4 cups Sprite Soda

2 cups Cranberry Juice

Stir and top with sliced apples.

That’s it! I took a sip of the punch and it was just right. The perfect blend of cranberry and apple with a fizzy lemon-lime addition of the Sprite. Yum!!

You have to be very careful; this punch is addicting! I may try some variations with orange juice or even ginger ale as substitutes. 

I had my 5 and 2 year old try the punch right away to see what they thought, and they immediately asked for more.

My husband had his doubts, but as soon as he tried it he poured himself an 8 oz glass, ha!

I topped my punch with thinly sliced apples, but I think some fresh cranberries would be beautiful as well, especially around the holidays for Christmas parties!

I hope you give this easy, Apple Cider Cranberry Punch a try and let me know what you think!
