How to Make Red Hot Punch

  1. In a large saucepan, combine 1 cup granulated sugar, 1 cup water, and 1 (14-ounce) bag of cinnamon candies.
  2. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the candies are completely melted and the mixture is smooth. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Remove from heat and let the mixture cool completely to room temperature. This prevents the ice from melting too quickly when you add it later.
  4. In a large punch bowl, combine 2 cups pineapple juice, 2 cups lemonade, 1 cup water, and 4 cups ginger ale.
  5. Gently stir in the cooled candy mixture until well combined.
  6. Serve immediately over ice. Garnish with extra cinnamon sticks or candy pieces for an extra festive touch!
