Talk Derby to Me: Kentucky Derby Infield Punch

What drinks will you serve your Kentucky Derby party guests?

The Mint Julep is the official drink of the Kentucky Derby but if you’re not a fan of bourbon, why not try “Infield Punch” instead.

It’s red color will match a “Run for the Roses” party theme and it is easy to serve a crowd from a punch bowl or a pitcher.

Kentucky Derby Infield Punch

• 2.5 Gallons Red Fruit Punch
• 1 750 ml bottle of your choice of vodka, gin, rum, or pure grain alcohol
• 1 lemon, sliced for garnish

Combine fruit punch and your choice of liquor in a pitcher and chill.

To keep the punch from getting watered down, add ice to individual glasses instead of the punch

Garnish with lemon slices.

(Serves 10)
