- Serves: 1 Batch
- Prep Time: 1 hour
Ingredients
- 2 (750ml.) bottles Mumm Sparkling Rosé, chilled (or your favorite sparkling rosé)
- 2 c. Rosehip Tea, warm
- 1/2 c. Strawberry Simple Syrup
- 1 c. Gin
- 1 c. Lemon Vodka
- 1 lb. Fresh Strawberries, hulled & sliced
- Ice
- 2 c. Fresh Strawberries, hulled & roughly chopped
- 1 c. Sugar
- 1 c. Cold Water
Instructions
To make simple syrup, combine sugar and water in a medium saucepot on medium heat. When sugar dissolves, stir in strawberries. Bring syrup to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer. Cover lightly with a circular piece of parchment paper laid on the surface of the liquid; simmer for 10 to 15 minutes or until syrup is pink and flavorful. Allow syrup to cool, then strain into a resealable jar and chill. Keep in the fridge for up to 30 days.
To make punch base, whisk together gin, vodka, simple syrup, and tea until well combined. If not serving immediately, store in a tightly sealed jar in the fridge for up to 1 week. If serving immediately, allow mix to sit for 10 minutes so flavors can meld. Pour in 1 bottle of Mumm Sparkling Rosé, reserving second bottle to top off punch as needed. Finish with freshly sliced strawberries.
