Saturday is National Punch Day! In preparation for this day, we've put together a delightful Autumn Punch recipe just for you. Using seasonal fruits, this Autumn Punch is jam-packed with the sweet flavors of the season! It can be tough preparing a signature drink for a whole party, but this recipe is enough to quench a crowd! What you need: Serves 36

• 2 gal apple cranberry juice
• 4 bottles fruity white wine (we used Riesling)
• 4 Tbsp honey or agave
• 6 cinnamon sticks
• 5 apples, 1 for garnish
• 3 pears

Suggested Smarty Products:

• punch bowl
• punch ladle
• 10 oz cups
• cocktail napkins
• picks
• ribbon

Using these suggested Smarty Products, set up a simple drink station and let guests serve themselves! Directions:

• Mix apple cranberry juice, white wine and honey to punch bowl.
• Add cinnamon sticks, sliced apples and sliced pears to punch bowl and stir.
• Ladle into 10 oz cups and garnish with apple slice.

Smarty Party Tip: Serving punch with picks makes it easy for guests to eat the fruit in their drinks. Jazz up your picks with a cute ribbon flag! Cut ribbon into 5 inch pieces, fold in half around the top of picks, and adhere with tape or hot glue. Cut a triangle shape notch in the end of the ribbon for a fun finishing touch.  Shop featured products here! For more yummy fall recipes, check out our Seasonal - Fall Recipes board on Pinterest!
