A very grown-up version of party punch. A perfect cocktail punch for an appetizer party.
1 (750-ml.) bottle rose wine
1 (28-ounce) bottle club soda
1 cup lemon juice
1 cup orange liqueur (Cointreau or Triple Sec)
Ice mold
2 (750-ml.) bottles dry sparkling wine, like Champagne
Frozen orange slices, as garnish
Combine first four ingredients and pour over ice mold in punch bowl. Add sparkling wine as guests arrive. Serve in wine glasses, floating orange slices in each to keep punch chilled.
Makes about 30 1/2-cup servings.
