Christmas Punch
This fizzy Christmas Punch made with cranberry juice and ginger ale is not only pretty but flavorful as well. The sherbert adds a creaminess that’s perfect for a festive touch. Make plenty—it will go fast!
Note: If you wish, you can simplify the recipe by cutting back on the other juices. For example, you could simply buy a cranberry cocktail or a cranberry-raspberry or cranberry-pomegranate drink. Make sure you buy Cranberry Cocktail; if you buy straight cranberry juice, you’ll need to add sugar or it will taste too tart.

Punch (non alcoholic)
Hi there,
I just printed the recipe for making later-on. What is a pint of sherbet?
The ingredient is not in South Africa or maybe it is... any alternative I can use please?
Thank you for your time.
All the best,
Sandy, Johannesburg SA.
Sherbet
Sherbet is an American version of gelato; a pint is 2 cups, about 1/2 litre. Just use whatever size container of gelato comes close.
Sounds delicious,can't wait
