When it’s giggle juice o’clock, it’s time to bring out the Spiced Tropical Holiday Champagne Punch! Made with tropical juices, a homemade spiced simple syrup, and fresh cranberries, it’s a fruity and tart twist on the seasonal flavors you know and love. Trust me when I say, you won’t be able to stop sipping on it.

My kind of giggle juice is forever and always champagne. No matter what mood I am in, when anything with that bubbly goodness hits my lips, it’s like a cloud lifts and the lightness transports me to the place in my mind where nothing can get me down.
For me, the holiday season is the ideal time of year to bring out the champagne.
Champagne is always brought out for festivities and celebrations. Since the holiday season is all about celebrations, you have an excuse to bust out the champagne at every single even this season without shame.

This holiday champagne punch is a little different than the others that you see floating around this time of year, in the best way possible.
The punch features a homemade spiced simple syrup with cloves, cinnamon, and star anise so you get those warming elements of seasonal flavors in the background of each sip.
Then you mix that up with tart and tangy juices to bring an island-y twist to the party.
The tropical flavor brought to the party is due to the most amazing Sprouts Brand 100% pineapple and mango juices that are brand spanking new in stores right now. The little cans of juice are the best size to sip on straight out of the can (if any of you love pineapple the way I do, it’s downright delicious and pure pineapple flavor), but they also make for the ideal mixers for punches, sangria, mixed drinks, and even adding to your club soda for an easy afternoon sipper at the office.
These Sprouts juices are such a great addition to light and bubbly brut champagne, and they partner so well with the homemade spiced simple syrup. Surprisingly, spices like cinnamon and clove pair elegantly with mango and pineapple.
You won’t be able to stop yourself from having a second glass of the delightful punch recipe.
It’s great for serving at holiday parties or whip it up for a ladies night! Serve it with a garnish of additional cranberries and a sweet candied orange slice for the perfect flair.
