So easy and delicious. I can't believe how many people asked me how to make it. I threw in a bunch of frozen raspberries to make it look prettier in the punch bowl.

Grandpa made these for me all the time as a kid. Now I made them for my kids. I agree with lovestohost, we like it best with cranberry pomegranate but we make it with the whole cranberry family. NOTE: You can make this with diet soda and unsweetened cranberry juice, too.

This is awesome; I make it regularly w/all varieties of 100% cranberry juices (cran-pom is my current fav). Cranberry juice is great for preventing UTI's, but I HATE it, so addling some diet sprite/sierra mist makes it taste a lot better. And it gives it bubbles. And I love bubbles. I don't usually measure, though, just pour about 2/3's juice and 1/3 diet soda. This would be a sneaky way to get kiddos to drink cran juices, too!

This is really good! You could really use any kind of dark colored juice for it! I will make it again! Thanks!

I remember drinking this as a kid all the time. I recently made this for a cookout my husband & I had and it was gone in the 1st hour! Everybody loved it & couldn't believe how simple it was.

This is a delicious combination! I made enough for 1 serving. I did 4oz of 100% cranberry-pomegranite juice and 4oz Sprite zero. It strangely improved the flavor of both. I will definitely be making this again. I bet it would be great with gingerale to.
