Ingredients

1 cup pear juice or pear nectar (see note 1)
2 cups apple cider
½ cup lemon juice (freshly squeezed is best but bottled also works)
2 cups ginger ale or non-alcoholic sparkling wine (see note 2)
2 cups sliced fruit of your choice (I used a mix of orange, blood orange, apple and pear)
½ cup cranberries (optional)
Rosemary to garnish (optional)

Instructions

Add your sliced fruit to a pitcher or punch bowl. Don't add the cranberries yet.
Pour in the pear juice/nectar, apple cider and lemon juice. Stir gently. If you're making this recipe in advance, stop here and place the pitcher in the fridge until you're ready to serve.
When you're ready to serve, add the ginger ale or non alcoholic sparkling wine. Stir gently, then add the cranberries.
Fill your glasses with ice. You can add some extra fresh fruit to your glass if you like. Pour in the punch and garnish with optional rosemary. Serve!

Notes

Note 1: I prefer using pear nectar because it's slightly richer and thicker, but pear juice also works perfectly!

Note 2: The ginger ale pairs perfectly with the pear and apple, while the sparkling wine gives a slightly more adult feel. Both are great choices. I've also written a round up of the best non-alcoholic champagne alternatives (linked in the article above) if you need some advice on the best ones to buy.

Nutrition fact note: the calculations use pear juice and do not include the ginger ale/non-alcoholic sparkling wine.
