    Autumn Punch

    "Punch" is a good description of this one-a couple of glasses pack a wallop. Add extra cranberry juice if you want it weaker.

    2 whole cinnamon sticks
    5 whole cloves
    1/3 cup sweet vermouth
    1/3 cup dry vermouth
    2 cups cranberry juice
    2 tablespoons sugar
    2 bottles dry white wine, such as Sauvignon Blanc
    1 bottle dry, full-bodied red wine, such as Cabernet Sauvignon
    1 cup apple brandy
    1 cup citrus vodka
    1 orange, sliced
    1 lemon, sliced

    1. Simmer spices, vermouths, cranberry juice, and sugar in a small saucepan. Remove from heat and let steep 1 hour.
    2. Chill remaining ingredients in a large container. Strain spice mixture into wine mixture and chill until ready to serve.
