Mother'S Ruin Punch

1. 1

   Ahead of time: infuse black tea bags into the sweet vermouth at room temperature, 6 tea bags for a 750 mL bottle, or proportionately if you are preparing less. It will take less than one day to infuse -- gently swirl the bottle occasionally to see how dark it is getting. Usual infusion time is about 6-12 hours.

2. 2

   In a large pitcher, stir the sugar with the club soda until dissolved. Stir in the gin, grapefruit and lemon juices and sweet vermouth and refrigerate until chilled, about 1 hour.

3. 3

   Transfer the punch to a large bowl. Gently stir in the champagne and float the grapefruit wheels on top. Serve in punch glasses over ice.
