Sparkling Cranberry Apple Cider Punch

Recipe Found HERE

1 cup fresh cranberries
1/3 cup water
1/2 cup granulated sugar
4 cups apple cider (see note), chilled
2 cups ginger ale, chilled 
2 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 cups 100% cranberry juice, chilled
Crushed ice

In a small saucepan, combine the cranberries and water and simmer for 2-3 minutes until the cranberries pop and split. Remove from the heat and stir in the sugar. Let cool to room temperature (or chill in the refrigerator).

In a 2-quart pitcher, pour in the cranberry mixture. Add the apple cider, ginger ale, lemon juice and cranberry juice. Mix. Serve in cups with crushed ice.

NOTES 

Make ahead of time: combine everything but the ginger ale in the pitcher and refrigerate for several hours. Add the chilled ginger ale when ready to serve.

Best served in a punch bowl. The cranberries clogged my beverage dispenser.
