Description

Backporch Punch is the ultimate balance of sweet, tart, and bold flavors.
The peach schnapps brings a mellow sweetness, the cranberry juice adds tang,
and the orange juice brightens it with citrus freshness, all tied together with
the rich depth of bourbon. It’s a light yet flavorful cocktail that feels festive
and easy to sip.

Tips

• For a stronger punch, add a splash more bourbon.
• To make it lighter, top with a splash of club soda or lemon-lime soda.
• Chill the juices ahead of time so your drink stays colder longer.
• Make a pitcher version by scaling up the recipe — perfect for parties.

Correction

Some people mistakenly make Backporch Punch too sweet by adding extra peach schnapps.
Stick to the balance in the recipe for the best flavor profile. If you prefer sweeter,
add a splash of simple syrup instead of overdoing the schnapps.
