- 2 l (3 1/2 pints) cranberry juice
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 10 whole cloves
- 2 1/2 cm (1in) piece fresh root ginger, roughly chopped
- 40 g (1 1/2oz) golden caster sugar
- 200 g (7oz) frozen raspberries
- 2 oranges
- 150 ml (1/4 pint) fruit liqueur, such as Védrenne crème de framboise (optional)
- Step 1
Pour the cranberry juice into a large pan and add the cinnamon stick, cloves, ginger and sugar. Set aside a few raspberries to decorate, then add the rest to the pan. Halve one orange and add the two halves to the pan. Heat the mixture gently and stir to dissolve the sugar, then simmer for 5min or until the raspberries are soft.
- Step 2
Strain through a fine sieve, pressing the raspberries and orange halves gently with the back of a spoon to extract the juice.
- Step 3
Return the liquid to the heat and add the liqueur, if using. Warm through. Slice the remaining orange into thin wedges. Ladle the warm punch into glasses. Decorate with the reserved raspberries and orange wedges and serve.
