*1 can 12 ounce Frozen Orange Juice Concentrate, **pulp free
*1 bottle, 2 quarts, Cranberry Juice Cocktail
*1/4 cup Maraschino Cherry Syrup
*add Water and Ice to taste
**I would use “pulp free” juices in this recipe if you are going to use a spouted drink container, so it won’t plug up the spout.
This made about 1 1/2 gallons for me but it depends on how much water you want to add to the Holiday Punch.
Top punch with one Orange and one Lemon Sliced
