This is the most amazing recipe, and I am just finally taking the time to post it on my blog. I have made this the last two years in a row for my annual Halloween party, as well as Thanksgiving and Christmas. It is the most beautiful looking punch to display, and when you’re making it, all the smells of autumn come to mind. Enjoy!
