These 20 Top-Rated Holiday Punch Recipes are sure to please every palate making them the perfect choice for easy holiday entertaining all season long!

Please note this post is intended for readers 21+ years of age. Please drink responsibly.

Punch is the ultimate effortless party drink option – just mix up a big batch, and you’re good to go!  

The following Top-Rated Holiday Punch Recipes are perfect for the entire season – Thanksgiving, Christmas, and even New Year’s Eve!  

While the holidays are a time to enjoy alcoholic beverages for many people, I know that many of my readers may also be searching for non-alcoholic party drinks. 

The great part about fruity punches is that any of these recipes can be customized to your tastes and party needs – simply add or remove the alcohol as you see fit – or you can make two pitchers, one for adults and one for the kids and other non-drinkers. 

The grain alcohol, Everclear, is tasteless (and cheap!), so if you like a non-alcoholic recipe on this list but want a boozy drink for your holiday party, you can just add Everclear, or another favorite alcohol, and vice versa. 

Without the alcohol, you’re left with a great fruity drink, so either way, you’re all set for your best ever holiday party!

6. Best Champagne Punch

This punch recipe couldn’t be simpler – just mix champagne, orange liqueur, and ginger ale!

7. Spiced Bloodied Orange Champagne Punch

Spice up plain champagne with a homemade blood orange mixture with star anise and cinnamon for a bubbly, refreshing drink.  

Blood oranges can be difficult to find, but may be carried at larger grocery stores like Giant, Wegman’s, or Whole Foods.  I’ve had better luck finding Blood Orange Juice, which I actually prefer for the convenience.

This drink would also be perfect for Halloween! Find more spooky inspiration: 31 Seriously Creative Halloween Cocktails .

8. The Easiest Holiday Punch

This punch is so easy to make and incredibly economical thanks to using Everclear grain alcohol.
