Christmas Punch

Christmas punch 1 585x883 Christmas Punch

Guys, now I know why they call it punch. Oh my head.

Mixologist Micah Dew is here at Christmas in November from Vancouver – check him out here on Dragon’s Den! And he let me behind the bar the other night to play Tom Cruise from Cocktail – I flipped a few bottles, and only broke one (it only had lime juice in it!) and he taught us all to mix a few fancy Christmas cocktails. This one is tasty and pretty, and I like the little candy cane garnish.

Micah’s Christmas Punch

In a shaker or glass filled with ice, add:

0.5 oz. Jim Beam Red Stag bourbon
0.5 oz. rum
0.5 oz. BOLS cherry liqueur
2 oz. cranberry juice

Shake vigorously for 15 seconds and strain into a highball glass filled with ice. Top with ginger ale and garnish with a small candy cane.
