How to Make 7 Up Cranberry Punch

  1. Chill 4 cups cranberry juice, 2 cups orange juice, and 1 cup lemon juice in the refrigerator.
  2. In a small saucepan, combine 1 cup water, 1 cup granulated sugar, and 3 cinnamon sticks. Bring to a simmer over medium heat for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until sugar dissolves completely.
  3. Remove from heat and let the cinnamon syrup steep for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, in the refrigerator. This allows the cinnamon flavor to fully develop.
  4. Before serving, remove the cinnamon sticks from the cooled cinnamon syrup.
  5. In a large punch bowl, combine the cooled cinnamon syrup, chilled cranberry juice, orange juice, and lemon juice.
  6. Gently pour in 4 cups of chilled 7 Up.
  7. Add ice cubes and garnish with lime slices (optional).
