Holiday Champagne Punch Recipe

*this post contains affiliate links for more information check out my disclosure page HERE*
I make this punch every Christmas dinner, cocktail party or holiday that calls for punch with or without champagne.
In my opinion, the punch is as good for an early morning baby shower as it is for a late night dinner Christmas or cocktail party.
I recently made this punch for my boys youth group Christmas Party and left out the champagne so that everyone could enjoy it.
You can leave the bottle of champagne out next to the punch for adults to add separately to their glass.
Ingredients Needed to Make My Holiday Champagne Punch Recipe
- 1 (12oz) can frozen orange juice concentrate thawed
- 1 (12oz) can frozen lemonade thawed
- 1 (12oz) can frozen fruit punch concentrate thawed
- 1 liter of club soda
- 1 1/2 cups or 1 can ginger ale with champagne or use the whole 2 liter bottle of cranberry ginger ale if making it virgin
- 1 bottle of champagne (optional if making holiday punch for the kids)
Instructions for How to Make Holiday Champagne Punch
*If making a frozen ice ring for your holiday champagne punch, start at least 8 hours or the day before your holiday party. (instructions below)
To make the holiday champagne punch, Combine all the ingredients above to your favorite punch bowl.
Don’t forget to thaw out the frozen juice containers at least a few minutes before mixing!
I use a metal whisk to break up any frozen clumps from the frozen juice.
Instructions for How to Make the Perfect Ice Ring for Holiday Champagne Punch
Ingredients Needed to Make a Frozen Ice Ring
- 1 Cup of Cranberries
- 1 Orange Sliced
- Cake Pan
I always add an ice ring to float in my punch bowl.
The ice ring makes the punch look that much more fancy and also keeps it cold for most of the party:)
Instructions for Your Frozen Ice Ring
Create your ice ring at least 8 hours before your party.
To make the ice ring, fill an unused cake bunt pan with 2 inches of water and add any fruit of your choice.
I put a cup of cranberries and 6 thinly sliced quartered oranges.
Ice Ring Tip – You can run a little warm water over the frozen ice ring and it will fall out of the bunt pan very smoothly.

I hope you will give my Holiday Champagne Punch Recipe & ice ring a try for your next holiday party!

You had me at “champagne”! I love anything that combines lemon and cranberries, so this is perfect.

Does the punch ring water it down? Maybe a cup of the juice could be frozen in the ring?
Hi Laurel! I haven’t found that the ice ring waters down the punch at all but you definitely could make an ice ring with some juice. Merry Christmas!
