**Tips**
– **Sugared Cranberries:** To make these at home, toss fresh cranberries in simple syrup, then coat them in granulated sugar. Let them dry before using.
– **Frozen Touch:** Use frozen cranberries instead of ice cubes to keep the punch cold without diluting the flavor.
– **Customization:** Add a splash of vodka or prosecco for an adult-friendly version.
