- Create a non-alcoholic version by using sparkling water instead of soda for a lighter, kid-friendly alternative.
- Prep cranberry and rosemary garnishes ahead of time and store in the refrigerator to save last-minute party prep stress.
- Adjust sweetness by adding a splash of simple syrup or honey if you prefer a sweeter punch profile.
