CLIENTS
It’s no secret that the holidays are my favorite time of the year.
Yes, it can be feel more like a burden than a blessing if you are playing hostess but I try not to let that get to me by constantly surrounding myself with the magic of the season. This could be lights, trees, performances, parades – you name it! Today I am sharing a festive holiday punch that will be making an appearance at my holiday gatherings (and is so simple to make!).
Cranberries and rosemary are pretty much the poster ingredients of the season!
It’s an instant way to make a recipe look festive and who doesn’t love those antioxidants? When it comes to holiday drinks and cocktails, I recommend sweetening them with 100% juice instead sugar and syrups that way you are getting nutrients like vitamin C instead of pure carbohydrates.
Today’s punch was made with Natalie’s Orchid Island Juice Company orange cranberry juice. Their juices are excellent because they don’t have any added sugar or preservatives. The only ingredient is the fruit that is in them. They are based in Florida and their juices are made to order in small batches – so you know they are fresh!
Nutrition:
Cranberries: Nutrient synergy is the name of the game when it comes to their age-defying phytonutrients. Simply put: it’s the whole cranberry that supports our health best rather than its isolated parts – that makes Natalies’ orange cranberry juice a perfect option!
Orange: Citrus is easily a super-star among winter produce. Perhaps the most noteworthy benefit of citrus is its immunity-boosting properties. One serving provides nearly 100% of your daily vitamin C intake, a nutrient that has been shown to shorten the duration of an existing cold.
