Oatmeal, brown sugar, cream, and marshmallow streusel give the sweet potato casserole topping its sweet potato pie-like flavor. The recipe pairs well with a variety of dishes, including extravagant holiday feasts and low-key chicken dinners. The best part is that you can prepare everything except the streusel the day before if you’re using it for entertaining, which will relieve any stress you may feel when the time comes.

Punch was a hit!
It’s ok. I like sweet drinks n this was so overly sweet!
Delicious! Multiply recipe times $ to fill a standard punch bowl
With a few tweaks according to the reviews, this was a huge hit at our bonfire!! I first made a test batch exactly as the recipe states, but it wasn’t exactly what I was looking for. So to tweak it and double it and serve in our dispenser, here’s what I used: 1 (64 oz) bottle 100% Cranberry juice, 1/3 c orange liqueur (Gran Gala or Grand Marnier), 4 c Ginger Ale, 3 c Bacardi rum, 8 slices lemon & 8 slices lime (gently squeezed into punch then floated on top). I also made a tray of ice cubes made of sliced lemon, sliced lime, cranberries and cranberry juice. This kept it nice and cold and didn’t dilute the flavor. Made for a gorgeous presentation. Will make this every year for sure!!
Delicious! I made this for Christmas Eve and everyone loved it! I tripled the recipe and omitted the sugar.
I made this recipe for a party, but found in following the recipe (minus the added sugar) that it didn’t really have the punch flavour I was looking for. I doctored it up adding some Cointreau to the mix and this improve the flavor greatly.
Omg. Made with coconut rum & cran raspberry juice. Probably didn’t need the extra sugar. One of my friends said that it’s like “vacation in a glass.” Squeeze the lemons first – don’t just put the slices in for decoration. Mom duplicated the recipe for her friends & my aunt had trouble getting out of her lawn chair! :-). Love love. Will definitely make again & again.
Used a 2 liter of cranberry ginger ale, 2 – 64 oz containers of cranberry juice, 3/4 cup sugar, 4 cups of lime flavored spiced rum, and added a sliced frozen lime. Huge hit at the party!
This was very good. I did not think it was too strong as others have said, but I do think it could use a little more ginger ale since it could be fizzier (which might also kill some alcohol flavor for some that thought it was too strong). This was a very nice holiday drink! Thanks!
tasted too much like Rum…had to adjust the amounts of Cranberry Juice.Also made a second batch using Cran-Apple juice and flavor was better.
Very good. I made a batch both with sugar and without the sugar. It’s good both ways; if you’re not fond of sweet drinks go sans sugar….still good. The lemon garnish added a nice touch.
This is delicious – we cut back on the sugar to about 1/4 and it was light tasting and refreshing.
I would have liked more ginger ale in this in order for it to have been called punch. The first thing that you taste is the rum, I couldn’t even get past that to taste the ginger ale. It wasn’t a bad drink, I am glad I tried it, but I won’t be keeping this one for the future.
Omit, or reduce, sugar.
I omitted the sugar and added a little sugar free sweet and sour mix. WONDERFUL! 🙂
This was the biggest hit at our Halloween party last year! Put the sugar in the cranberry juice early and shake it up every now and then so it fully dissolves. I think I may have used slightly less rum than this calls for, but alcohol levels are a matter of personal preference anyway. It’s always best to start small and add more if needed. This will definitely be showing up again and again in our house!
This was really good, but the added sugar made it too sweet, next time I will leave it out.
I really liked this recipe. I added pineapple juice to it just because I love it with Rum and feel that Cranberry Juice alone is too concentrated.
Served New Year’s Eve 2010…looked great…tasted better!!!! And sooooo easy!
People seemed to like it but I felt it was way too strong and I used a tad less rum than called for as it was.
Not a big fan of cranberry, so it ended up being pretty so-so.
