Servings 4 people

Equipment

  • Medium saucepan
  • Pitcher
  • Strainer

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups mixed berry juice
  • 1 cup orange juice
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 cinnamon stick
  • 4 whole cloves
  • 1 orange, sliced
  • 2 cups sparkling water, chilled
  • 1/2 cup fresh mixed berries, for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Combine the mixed berry juice, orange juice, water, and honey in a medium saucepan.
  • Add the cinnamon stick, cloves, and half of the orange slices to the pan.
  • Heat the mixture over medium heat until it reaches a gentle simmer, then reduce the heat and cook for 8 minutes to infuse the spices.
  • Remove the pan from the heat and let the mixture cool to room temperature.
  • Strain the mulled liquid into a pitcher to remove the spices and cooked orange slices.
  • Stir in the chilled sparkling water just before serving to preserve the fizz.
  • Fill four glasses with ice, pour the punch over the ice, and garnish each glass with fresh berries and the remaining orange slices.

Notes

Chill the mulled base ahead of time and add the sparkling water right before guests arrive so the drink stays lively. If you prefer a sweeter version, stir in an extra tablespoon of honey while the base is still warm. Avoid shaking the pitcher after adding the sparkling water, as that can flatten the bubbles quickly.
