It’s always hard to believe when the year is wrapping up. If you’re opting to stay in and celebrate New Year’s Eve at home with friends and family, this champagne pomegranate punch is always a favorite. It’s a crowd-pleaser and a perfect twist on the traditional glass of champagne but with that little bit of extra sweetness. Cheers!
