Cranberry-Pineapple Punch
- add review
- #9250
A refreshing combination of cranberry and pineapple, with a hint of sweetness from the sugar. The ginger ale gives it a nice fizz and makes it even more refreshing.

ingredients
1 bottle (48 ounce size) cranberry juice drink, chilled
1 can (48 ounce size) pineapple juice, chilled
1/2 cup sugar
2 teaspoons almond extract
1 bottle (2-liter) ginger ale, chilled
directions
Combine the cranberry juice, pineapple juice, sugar, and almond extract in a large pitcher or punch bowl. Mix until the sugar is dissolved. The punch can be made up to this point and chilled ahead of time, if desired.
Stir in the ginger ale and serve immediately.
nutrition data
Beer makes batters better, meat more tender, and sauces more flavorful.
Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.

This is an awesome punch!!! I served it at my Christmas party as a non-alcoholic alternative and every drop was drank up. It is easy & delicious!!!
I added frozen cranberries and lime slices to make it red and green for Xmas, also added three cups of vodka! It was all gone. Two more people made it for their holiday party after mine it was so popular!

You must try!!! I've tried many punch recipes in my time and this one will surprise everyone...I think the almond extract is the secret to this tasty, terrific punch.

I made this recipe for a baby shower and it was a big hit. I used less sugar than the recipe called for because I like a more tart taste. It went perfectly with our cake because it was not too sweet.

Very good, easy to make, and not overwhelmingly sweet. Festive color for a party or holiday, too.
