Warm Tequila Punch

This fruity punch works for any holiday party. Cookbook author Marcela Valladolid and her aunts sip this as they make tamales--along with straight nips of Valladolid's own añejo (aged) tequila, Hacienda de la Flor, which she makes with her brother Antonio. This recipe is adapted from one in Valladolid's cookbook Mexican Made Easy (Clarkson Potter, 2011).
