Ingredients

  • 52 oz Cocktail Cranberry Juice
  • 40 oz Pineapple-Orange Juice
  • 5.5 oz Red Hots candy
  • 3 Cinnamon Sticks 5 inches each
  • 16 ounces White Rum optional

Instructions

  • Pour both juices into the crockpot.
    52 oz Cocktail Cranberry Juice, 40 oz Pineapple-Orange Juice
  • Add the red hots and cinnamon sticks to the crockpot.
    5.5 oz Red Hots candy, 3 Cinnamon Sticks
  • Cook on low for 3 hours.
  • Add white rum, if spiking the punch.
    16 ounces White Rum
  • Stir well.
  • Garnish, if desired, and enjoy!

Notes

  • You can make this in advance and just store it in the fridge until you're ready to serve. Just warm it in the slow cooker for about an hour prior to serving.
  • Don't use unsweetened juice unless you like really tart punch that will make your cheeks pucker.
  • If you find that the punch is too tart, add more Red Hots and let the punch cook for another 30 minutes.
  • Use your favorite variety of pineapple orange juice. I like Tropicana but use what you like.
