Notes

  • The calories listed are an approximation based on the ingredients in the recipe card and a serving size of 8 ounces of punch. Actual calories will vary.
  • Feel free to adjust any of the ingredients to your taste.
  • Storage info is listed in detail above the recipe. Scroll up to see it.
  • I've include the ingredients and instructions on how to make the simple syrup. It's not included in the prep time since it should be prepared well ahead of time and chilled in the fridge. You can also purchase this at many grocery stores.
