• Ready In: 2 hrs 35 mins
• Yields: 20

Ingredients

• 6  inches cinnamon sticks
• 6  whole cloves
• 6  whole allspice
• 2  cups  white cranberries (I used red as white could not be found- my punch was rosey colored)
• 1⁄2 cup water
• 1⁄2 cup  orange juice
• 2  tablespoons honey
• 1⁄3 cup sugar
• 2  tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 (750 ml) bottle  pinot grigio wine (or similar)

Directions

1. Combine all ingredients in a 3 qt crock pot.
2. Cover and cook on low setting 2.5 hours. Remove and discard cloves and cinnamon sticks before serving.
3. Directions for spice bag- gather spices and put in a piece of cheesecloth tied with a string. (leave longer threads so it is easier to take out or I hang mine from the end of the crock similar to a tea bag) The punch retains the flavor of the spices without the mess of removal.
