Merry Gin-Mas! Christmas is right around the corner and if you’re wondering what on earth you’re going to bring to the family lunch or dinner, look no further than this festive Gin punch recipe.

With dry gin, lots of berries, sparkling wine and more, it’s the ideal refreshing beverage for this holiday season.

Ingredients

125g punnet raspberries

2 limes, thinly sliced

1 cup dry gin

750ml bottle sparkling crisp apple juice, chilled

375ml can lemonade, chilled

750ml bottle sparkling rose wine, chilled

BERRY ICE CUBES

250g punnet strawberries, hulled

600ml bottle raspberry flavoured soft drink

Method

To make berry ice cubes, cut strawberries into quarters. Divide half among two x 12-hole ice cube trays. Fill with raspberry soft drink. Freeze. Reserve remaining strawberries in a covered container in the fridge.

Up to 1 hour before serving, combine raspberries, lime, gin, apple juice and reserved strawberries in a large serving jug. Cover and refrigerate to chill.

Just before serving, add lemonade, rose and berry ice-cubes. Serve immediately.

TIP! Make the ice cubes the day before serving. For a less sweet option, replace lemonade with soda water. If you don’t have a large serving jug, use a large bowl instead.
