You know, Moscato Punch is that rare drink you absolutely can’t mess up (unless you forget the Moscato, then, well…). I’ve tried swapping the fruit for whatever is hanging around the freezer. Watermelon? Delicious. Oranges sliced thin? Adds a fresh zing you wouldn’t expect.
If you want to get a bit wild, pour in a glug of coconut rum. Watch how people react—my aunt blurted out “Heck yes!” during family brunch. Also, if you want color that really pops, try using a pink Moscato. It looks like a whole event in a glass, especially if you serve in mason jars (trust me on this one).
Feel free to get crafty with the serving setup. Mini umbrellas? Goofy straws? Living your best poolside fantasy, even in January.
WHAT IS A MOSCATO DRINK
So here’s the basic run-down. Moscato started as that sweet, fruity white wine a lot of folks discover before diving into the “serious wine” world. It’s lighter and packs a little sparkle. When you turn it into a punch, you basically get a crowd-friendly cocktail that’s not too strong, definitely not too serious, and just super easy to love.
A Moscato drink is often anything where Moscato is the main player, but for the punch, it gets even better. You’re mellowing out the wine’s sweetness with soda and brightening it up with fruit and juice. Nobody gets stuck with some syrupy-boring glass. It’s like the drink version of a cheerful playlist. You’ll see it pop up at bridal showers or sunny backyard parties, and people just seem to cheer up when it hits their glass.
TRY THESE OTHER REFRESHINGLY FRUITY COCKTAILS
Let’s be honest. Once you start mixing up Moscato Punch, it’s hard not to get the itch to try even more fruity drinks. Sometimes you want variety! Here are a few ways I like to serve it:
- Make it sparkle! Add club soda if you want extra fizz.
- Swap the Moscato for a bubbly rosé for a twist.
- Slice up citrus fruits—lemons, limes, even blood oranges—right in the punch bowl.
- Toss in a splash of cranberry for a sweet-tart kick.
Trust me, your crew will want the recipe. Every. Single. Time.
