Note
For a stronger citrus flavor, use freshly squeezed lemon and orange juices.
If you do not have a large block of ice, you can use regular ice cubes, but be aware that they will melt faster and dilute the punch more quickly.
This punch can be prepared up to an hour in advance, but add the sparkling grape juice just before serving to maintain the fizz.
Adjust the sweetness by adding a simple syrup if you prefer a sweeter taste, or add more lemon juice for extra tartness.
Garnish individual glasses with a slice of orange or a maraschino cherry for a festive presentation.
