Aperol Gin Punch
A citrusy gin and Aperol punch finished with sparkling wine, built for easy batching when you want something bright and festive.
Ingredients
- 5 cups gin
- 3 cups Aperol
- 1 cup Yellow Chartreuse
- 1 3/4 cups freshly squeezed lime juice
- 2 1/2 cups freshly squeezed grapefruit juice
- 3/4 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
- 10 dashes orange bitters
- Ice
- 1 750-mL bottle sparkling wine, chilled
- 2 oranges, sliced in thin round slices
Directions
Combine the gin with the Aperol and Chartreuse in a large punch bowl or beverage dispenser, then pour in the lime, grapefruit, and orange juices. Shake in the bitters, if using, and stir everything together. Add several cups of ice, give it another stir, and let it chill for 15 minutes; the ice is meant to soften the punch a little as it sits. Pour the sparkling wine over the top, stir lightly, and add the orange slices. Serve with more ice.
