Step by step
Make it like a pro.
2 minutes measuring and about 5 minutes warming.
01
Pour both measured juices into a small saucepan. Whisk in the cinnamon and cloves.
02
Warm over medium-low heat for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until steaming but not boiling.
03
Pour the entire unstrained batch into a heatproof mug. Stir before sipping if spices settle.
Not necessarily. The reference is a specified cranberry juice cocktail with its own nutrition label. Do not substitute unsweetened cranberry juice and assume the same sugar or flavor.
Can I make four servings?+
Multiply each ingredient by four and use a larger saucepan. Warm gently until steaming, then divide the complete batch evenly; no fixed cooking time is guaranteed for a larger volume.
Why are there fine specks in the punch?+
The measured cinnamon and cloves are ground and remain in the serving. Their solids are deliberately counted rather than strained out with an invented nutrient-retention assumption.
