I have a recipe I kept from Martha Stewart magazine for Guava punch, I like it because it is simple, it only has three ingredients.  I have made this for friends and always gets compliments.

  • 2 quarts chilled guava nectar (sold in cans or frozen concentrate in Latino groceries and some supermarkets).
  • 3 fresh guavas
  • 2 chilled bottles of champagne or sparkling wine

Directions:  Combine guava nectar and champagne in a punch bowl, add guava slices, serve over ice and enjoy!

Taken from: Martha Stewart Living July/August 1995
