Cider Punch Instructions
The Cider Punch is a delightful cocktail that combines the flavors of apple cider, bourbon, and ginger beer. This refreshing drink is perfect for any season and is sure to be a hit at your next gathering.
To make the Cider Punch, you will need a few simple ingredients. Start by pouring apple cider into a pitcher or punch bowl. Add bourbon to the cider, adjusting the amount to your preferred taste. For a stronger punch, add more bourbon; for a milder flavor, add less.
