    can you switch the white moscato for pink?

    • Nathan Longley says

      That’s not a swap I would recommend. The flavor change won’t really work here.

  3. A says

    Would it be okay to mix the punch night before & refrigerate? & add pineapple & cherries before serving?

    • Nathan Longley says

      Yeah, that would work! Hope you enjoy it!
