10 pieces of fresh orange peel

Instructions

1.    To frost the glass, dip the rim of the glasses into a shallow bowl of water and then into a plate of Siúcra Granulated Sugar.  Leave these to set/ dry for 10 minutes.
2.    To make the sugar syrup, pour the Siúcra Caster Sugar and water into a saucepan and bring to the boil over a high heat, reduce the heat to low and add the orange pieces.

3.    To make the punch, once the syrup is cold, pour this into a large glass bowl, add the blueberries, grapes, cranberries, sprigs of mint and carved apples into the bowl / jug. 
4.    Give it a gently stir and then pour in the sparkling water. You’ll need a ladle to stir into the glasses.
