How to Make Cranberry Holiday Punch

  1. In a large saucepan, combine 1 (12-ounce) can frozen cranberry juice concentrate, 4 cups water, 1/2 cup honey, 1 cinnamon stick (3 inches), 5 whole cloves, and 3 green cardamom pods. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
  2. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
  3. Remove from heat and stir in 1 cup cranberry juice (or white wine), and 1/4 cup orange liqueur (such as Grand Marnier or Cointreau).
  4. Gently reheat over low heat until warmed through. Do not boil.
  5. Serve immediately in mugs, garnished with a small cinnamon stick.
