Enjoy Making Delightful Holiday Recipe Memories like Fruitcake and Blood Orange Holiday Punch
You will enjoy making delightful holiday memories using SKYY Vodka Infusions with Blood Orange Vodka. These recipes are so delicious and festive they are certain to become family favorites.
The holiday fruit cake has been a traditional gift for centuries. Though a thoughtful and generous treat, more often than not, holiday fruit cakes find themselves in the bottom of the trash bin. But not this year! For the holidays, SKYY Vodka has partnered with Michelin-starred pastry chef Ryan Butler to give the tired fruitcake a much-needed upgrade.
Ryan has been kind enough to share his recipe that is definitely not your grandmother’s fruitcake. By replacing rum or whisky with SKYY Infusions Blood Orange Vodka (made with real blood oranges) and a hint of spice and caramel, the result is a light, sweetly balanced and delicious dessert.

As the holiday’s get closer, the parties and indulgences get more frequent. If you’re like me and don’t want to show up to the next gathering empty handed, but also not the best chef in-town, here’s the recipe for you.
SKYY Vodka has curated a cocktail especially for the occasion featuring its Blood Orange Infusions flavor, made with real oranges, an ideal complement to the notes of cinnamon and rosemary served in side dishes, while being light enough to not overpower all the festive treats. And punch is the new festive drink this season. Get creative on your punch bowl with things you already have on hand, or check out a local antique shop or flea market for something “new” and exciting!
