Recipe: Perk-A-Punch

On Thursday, October 22, Chef Jill was lucky enough to pair with AR Workshop at The Ivy Place in Van Wyck, SC to teach a charcuterie and cheese board class while the participants worked on their personalized tray project under a beautiful fall sky and the twinkling lights of the pole barn. This warm fall beverage was the perfect accompaniment to warm our hearts and toes. It’s the perfect festive drink for Thanksgiving and Christmas.
