“Especially for a group, I find that vodka makes a great base spirit for punch—it showcases everything you add to it,” says Nashville bartender Hayley Teague. That’s especially true for the Nardini Mandorla, which is an Italian, grappa-based nod to maraschino liqueur. “It has this intense, almost funky flavor that comes from an infusion of almond oil.” At the restaurant Hathorne, Teague softens Nardini Mandorla with St-Germain elderflower liqueur. Come fill a glass and sip on spring flavors with this large-format vodka punch.
