How do I store leftover Peach and Citrus Non-Alcoholic Party Punch?
Refrigerate any leftover peach and citrus non-alcoholic party punch in a sealed pitcher or jar for up to 3–4 days. Do not reheat — drinks are served chilled. If the recipe uses sparkling water or fresh herbs, hold those back and add fresh just before pouring so the drink stays bright and fizzy.
