Guests at your Halloween party are sure to feel a little tingle creeping up their spine when they go for a ladle of this witch’s brew punch and an icy hand floats up to wave hello!

But they’ll feel a much more pleasing tingle once they take a sip and see just how good it tastes.

Want to make it kid-friendly? Simply skip the bourbon and substitute the sparkling wine for a non-alcoholic sparkling cider, such as Martinelli's.

Ingredients

2 cups bourbon
3 cups cranberry-pomegranate juice, chilled
1 cup fresh grapefruit juice, chilled
1/2 cup fresh orange juice, chilled
2 bottles sparkling wine, chilled
Fresh cranberries and Hand Ice Molds (instructions below), for garnish

Directions

1. Step 1Combine bourbon, cranberry-pomegranate juice, grapefruit juice, orange juice, and sparkling wine in a punch bowl. Garnish with cranberries and Hand Ice Molds.
To make Hand Ice Molds
1. Step 1Rinse 2 to 3 large powder-free nitrile medical gloves. Fill gloves two-thirds full with water (about two cups), or to just above the “thumbs,” leaving 2 to 3 inches of gloves empty. Tie opening closed. For a more natural shape, arrange the filled gloves over rolled or balled-up dishcloths in the freezer. Freeze until solid, at least 8 hours and up to 3 days. Remove gloves before placing ice hands in punch.
