For the Punch

4 cups apple cider Provides a sweet and tangy base; substitute with spiced apple juice for a non-alcoholic version.
2 cups cranberry juice Adds tartness and vibrant color; fresh juice yields a fresher flavor.
1 cup spiced rum Contributes warmth and depth; can substitute with light rum for a milder taste.

For the Garnishes

Step-by-Step Instructions

In a large punch bowl, combine 4 cups of apple cider and 2 cups of cranberry juice. Stir gently until well combined.
Pour in 1 cup of spiced rum and stir gently to combine for even distribution.
For chilled punch, cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes; for warm punch, pour into a saucepan and heat over medium-low for about 10 minutes.
Just before serving, add garnishes: slice one fresh apple, toss a handful of cranberries, and add cinnamon sticks.
Serve Thanksgiving Punch in glasses filled with ice or warmed mugs. Garnish with additional apple slices or cranberries if desired.
