The Amas Veritas Punch – Love Potion Witches Brew
Gather your coven and set the mood — the Amas Veritas Punch is a spellbinding love potion inspired by folklore, friendship, and a little bit of cocktail magic. This punch-style brew is made for sharing, filled with juicy red fruits, bold spirits, and a trio of Double Dutch mixers to bring fizz, fire, and balance. Whether you're hosting a mystical evening or just love a theatrical drink, this one’s made to enchant.
Why We Love the Amas Veritas Punch
Named after the legendary love spell from *Practical Magic*, the Amas Veritas Punch is rich, flavourful, and deeply aromatic. It combines the tartness of cranberry and pomegranate, the sweetness of cherry juice, and the complex citrus warmth of Cointreau. Gin adds a crisp backbone, but you can swap in vodka or golden rum for your own twist.
What truly makes this punch magical is the combination of three different Double Dutch mixers — Pomegranate & Basil, Cranberry & Ginger, and Ginger Beer. Each one layers in its own personality: herbal, tart, spicy. Served over ice with a fragrant herb-and-citrus garnish, it’s a dramatic centrepiece that tastes just as good as it looks.
Serving Suggestions
- Build in a large punch bowl with a decorative ice block to keep it cool and festive.
- Garnish each serve with a sprig of rosemary and lavender speared through a citrus wheel for a touch of witchy elegance.
- Serve in rocks glasses over fresh ice — bonus points if you chant your intentions as you pour. 🪄
Top Tips
- Prep your ice block the night before with citrus slices, herbs, or edible flowers frozen inside for extra drama.
- Chill all ingredients before combining to keep the punch crisp without diluting it too quickly.
- Want to make it alcohol-free? Replace the spirits with cherry juice and a splash of non-alcoholic orange liqueur alternative.
Bold, beautiful, and brimming with intention, the Amas Veritas Punch is your go-to for mystical gatherings and magical nights. Whether you believe in love spells or just really good cocktails, this one’s guaranteed to cast a delicious charm.
