Adding citrus freshness is none other than lemon, which together with the crisp berry liqueur really opens up your senses.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Spring Hot Punch has a wonderfully bright and sweet flavor, but the cranberry juice takes it to the next level by balancing the drink with its tartness. Despite the abundance of berries, the result isn&#8217;t overly sweet, but rather a refreshingly berry-forward and balanced drink that appeals to many tastes. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This hot drink infused with forest berries is more than a worthy alternative to mulled wine or hot toddy, and works great for outdoor trips in a thermos. The marinated berries left at the bottom also make an easy and quick dessert\u2014just pour the Metsmaasikas-marinated berries into a dessert bowl and serve with vanilla ice cream! <\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Spring Hot Punch<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">4 cl <a href=\"https:\/\/viikonviini.fi\/viini\/metsmaasikas-wild-strawberry\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Metsmaasikas Wild Strawberry<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">8 cl cranberry juice<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">1 tsp sugar<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">2 lemon wedges<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">4-6 raspberries<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">4-6 black currants<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">4-6 blueberries<\/p>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"632\" height=\"843\" class=\"wp-image-3556\" src=\"https:\/\/viikonviini.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Metsmaasika_hot_punch-2-632x843.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/viikonviini.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Metsmaasika_hot_punch-2-632x843.jpg 632w, https:\/\/viikonviini.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Metsmaasika_hot_punch-2-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/viikonviini.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Metsmaasika_hot_punch-2-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/viikonviini.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Metsmaasika_hot_punch-2-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/viikonviini.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Metsmaasika_hot_punch-2-1440x1920.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/viikonviini.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Metsmaasika_hot_punch-2-445x593.jpg 445w, https:\/\/viikonviini.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Metsmaasika_hot_punch-2-398x531.jpg 398w, https:\/\/viikonviini.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Metsmaasika_hot_punch-2-443x590.jpg 443w, https:\/\/viikonviini.fi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Metsmaasika_hot_punch-2.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 632px) 100vw, 632px\" alt=\"Metsmaasikas\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here&#8217;s how:<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Place all ingredients except the Metsmaasikas liqueur in a pot.
