Four delicious punches, four distinct cities. There’s never a bad time for a good punch bowl recipe, but more importantly, there might not be a better time than now, right as we hit the Holiday season. Thanksgiving is less than a week away followed by Christmas and New Years right around the corner. We’ll all (hopefully) be hosting or participating in some form of holiday party or family get together so why not be the guy/girl everyone is high-fiving this year for bringing an awesome punch recipe to the party. This past Summer, Grey Goose Vodka released a series of regionally inspired punch recipes. These cities were Los Angeles, Chicago, New York, and Miami. Just because they were intended for the Summer doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy them now. Besides, if you’re living in the South like we do, you are probably still celebrating the warm weather anyway. Check out the recipes blow, or click on the links for videos showcasing each recipe. Cheers
