Basil Hayden Bourbon Punch

Nothing is easier than a big punch bowl and pretty glasses as your signature party cocktail if you are entertaining. This punch is made with Basil Hayden Bourbon, probably the smoothest Kentucky whiskey I know of, and it pairs great with the orange liqueur, sugar, and sweet vermouth. It looks super pretty garnished with cherries, lemons, and orange slices. I’ll be serving this punch at our Halloween neighborhood block party but you could also serve it for the holidays or at a New Year’s Eve party. Let’s raise a glass and cheers for the holiday season kicking off with All Hallow’s Eve!
