Cocktail of the Month:

Nantucket Lemonade 

Ingredients:

• Punch bowl and glasses
• 5 cups lemonade, homemade or good-quality purchased
• 2 cups cranberry juice
• 3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
• 3 cups vodka
• 2 cups chilled ginger ale
• 4 cups ice cubes
• Frozen cranberries and lemon slices for garnish

Process:

• Combine the lemonade, cranberry juice, lime juice and vodka in the punch bowl and mix well.  Just before serving, slowly pour in ginger ale.  Add the ice cubes.  Garnish with the frozen cranberries and lemon slices and serve immediately.
• Notes:  For non-alcoholic Nantucket Lemonade, substitute 2 cups additional ginger ale and 1 cup cranberry juice for the Vodka.  For a picnic or harbor cruise, mix the punch directly in a small insulated cooler for instant and easy transportability.
