Do you love to host a summer brunch?
If so, I have a delicious punch that's easy to make, packs a lot of wow flavor, and may make mimosa take second place.
Texas is in the title because this punch uses tequila as well as champagne or sparkling wine. An assortment of yummy fruit juices along with the tequila and wine give the punch a depth of flavor.
This recipe makes 10-12 cups or 6-8 really thirsty guests.
If you want to be fancy, make an ice ring by pouring some of the same juices used in the punch into a ring mold and freezing overnight.
