1pt Posada Punch Recipe

1pt Posada Punch
Inspired by the warmth and camaraderie of the Mexican holiday Posada celebrations, this punch infuses tequila with seasonal spices, creating a vibrant blend that’s fresh and festive. With a splash of club soda to lighten it up, it’s perfect for gatherings that stretch late into the night. Batch it up and serve with a twist for a drink that keeps spirits high and the atmosphere lively. For a non-alcoholic option, a zero-proof tequila keeps all the flavors, minus the kick.

STEP 1 - Easy All-Natural Infusion

Infuse Your Spirit:
Combine a 1pt Mulled White Infusion Blend Packet with 375ml of tequila in any lidded container. Let it infuse for 2-3 hours, then strain, and reserve the infused spirit for your cocktails. (No need to refrigerate - infused spirits can be stored indefinitely at room temperature)

1pt Mulled White Infusion Blend Ingredients:
Lemon Verbena, Cardamom, Apple, Ginger, Pink Peppercorn - no sugar, gluten, dairy, nuts, additives, or preservatives

Mocktail* Version:
Substitute a zero-proof spirit for the alcohol in this infusion and follow the same steps. (Non-alcoholic infusions should be refrigerated and used within 30 days)

STEP 2 - Mix Your Drink

Mixing Instructions:
Combine all ingredients except club soda in a shaker with ice. Shake until chilled, then strain into a suitable glass over ice. Top with club soda. For batching, combine all ingredients except club soda in a pitcher with ice, stirring well. Add club soda just before serving to maintain effervescence.

Garnish:
Fresh cranberry slices

STEP 3 - Enjoy!

For an Added Twist:
Add a dash of pomegranate juice for a deeper fruit flavor and a vibrant hue.

Food Pairing Suggestions:
Cocktails shine especially brightly alongside appetizers that bring out their full range of flavors. For this cocktail, try these ideas based on the vibe you’re going for:

• Simple & Satisfying: Mini chicken empanadas with a hint of cumin, offering a savory bite that complements the spiced tequila.
• Classic & Comforting: Sweet corn tamales, with their mild sweetness balancing the cocktail's citrus notes.
• Elevated & Elegant: Mini tostadas topped with citrus-marinated shrimp, avocado, and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro, adding a refreshing, zesty touch to complement the drink’s bright flavors.
